Discussions and even definitions of the term «religious minorities» sometimes refer to the importance of achieving political or social equality as one of the main aims of numerically and politically non-dominant religious groups. Even though such definitions can be characterized as teleological and normative, their focus on the dynamics in and around such formations seems closely connected to the modern discourse on religious minorities, in which social and religious equality are given central importance. This panel invites paper proposals that inquire into the social processes leading to the emergence of various forms of inequality in and around Eastern European minority religions, as well as the strategies of these groups or their members to assert their status and gain recognition on an individual, institutional or state level.
