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.
