World christianity (series: critical concepts in religious studies)

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateur : Koepping Elizabeth

Two-thirds of the world's Christians live in Africa, Asia, and Latin America and this new interdisciplinary collection of articles on World Christianity from Routledge brings together specialist contributions from around the world, including Pentecostal and various Reform churches, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, Lutheran and independent churches. The materials have been arranged around the core themes of contextualization, external and internal power, theological and ethnic marginalization, civic and ancestral identity, mission and conversion, and cover Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and South America, Oceania, and the indigenous people of North America and Australasia. The collection draws on the latest work from theology, anthropology, the sociology of religion, missiology, and religious studies, enabling users to grasp the very varied presentation of the Christian faith, the socio-cultural negotiation, accommodation, renovation, and the challenges to what the collection editor calls a 'Euro-American Christian taken-for-granted' understanding, theology and praxis from 'the world beyond'. Fully indexed, and containing comprehensive introductions newly written by the editor, World Christianity is destined to be valued by scholars and students as a vital one-stop research resource.
