520 |a The article examines Zoroastrian minority communities in three different contexts of their functioning, namely in Iran, home to the oldest Zoroastrian community, in India, which hosts the largest Zoroastrian population, and in the diaspora, where Zoroastrian settlements have emerged as a result of relatively new migrations. It discusses how Zoroastrian minority communities developed and transformed in specific contexts, adapting to changing conditions, coping with their minority status, modifying their beliefs, and adopting varying identity strategies resulting from their different relationships with dominant groups. The article also draws attention to the challenges to the integrity of traditionally understood Zoroastrian communities posed by new contexts, globalization, transnational activities, and such practices as mixed marriages and the conversion of outsiders to Zoroastrianism.
