Although Islam is not new to West Africa, new patterns of
domestic economies, the promise of political liberalization, and
the proliferation of new media have led to increased scrutiny of
Islam in the public sphere. Dorothea E. Schulz shows how new media
have created religious communities that are far more publicly
engaged than they were in the past. Muslims and New Media in West
Africa expands ideas about religious life in West Africa, women's
roles in religion, religion and popular culture, the meaning of
religious experience in a charged environment, and how those who
consume both religion and new media view their public and private
selves.
