This book compiles James L. Cox’s most important writings on a
phenomenology of Indigenous Religions into one volume, with a new
introduction and conclusion by the author. Cox has consistently
exemplified phenomenological methods by applying them to his own
field studies among Indigenous Religions, principally in Zimbabwe
and Alaska, but also in Australia and New Zealand. Included in this
collection are his articles in which he defines what he means by
the category ‘religion’ and how this informs his precise
meaning of the classification ‘Indigenous Religions’. These
theoretical considerations are always illustrated clearly and
concisely by specific studies of Indigenous Religions and their
dynamic interaction with contemporary political and social
circumstances. This collection demonstrates the continued relevance
of the phenomenological method in the study of religions by
presenting the method as dynamic and adaptable to contemporary
social contexts and as responsive to intellectual critiques of the
method.
