This book delves into the complex relationship between religious
imaginaries and the perception of space among followers of
Candomblé and Pentecostal churches in Belo Horizonte, Brazil's
third-largest urban agglomeration. It adopts a dual perspective,
examining the broader political, economic, and social dimensions of
these religious communities' urbanisation and spatial distribution
and their members' individual beliefs and behaviours. Through this
approach, the book aims to provide a nuanced and insider's view of
these religious positions, challenging our preconceived notions of
urban spaces and contributing to the larger discussion of
decolonial urban theory and spatialised post-secular thought. This
transdisciplinary book will appeal to a broad range of researchers,
particularly those interested in urban and religious studies. Its
strong spatial perspective makes it attractive to architects and
urban designers. It will be of interest to those in human
geography, urban planning, design, architecture, political science,
religious studies, and culture studies.
