"Other scholars have addressed the liberal-conservative dynamics in
American religion, but few have addressed the issue on a more
global scale. This is an impressive book."--Randall Balmer, author
of "Thy Kingdom Come and Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory"
"The link between conservative American Episcopalians and
African Anglicans has been apparent for a decade or more. Now
Miranda Hassett describes how this link has taken shape and how it
works. "Anglican Communion in Crisis" is an important and timely
book that gives insights into religion as a globalizing force and
into the changing shape of religious conservatism."--William Sachs,
author of "The Transformation of Anglicanism"
""Anglican Communion in Crisis" is admirable for the clarity and
consistency of its arguments about the current ideological divides
within the Anglican Communion. Miranda Hassett manages to describe
some fraught theological debates while remaining sympathetic to the
various positions. There is much fine scholarship here."--Simon
Coleman, University of Sussex
""Anglican Communion in Crisis" is a detailed analysis of new
networks between seemingly unlikely global partners--conservative
American Episcopalians and predominantly East African Anglicans,
united in their opposition to liberal Anglicans' growing openness
toward homosexuality. This is the only thorough examination of
these important global alliances that includes both textual and
anthropological analysis. This is an important work for
anthropologists of religion, for church historians, and for
scholars of globalization."--Pamela Klassen, University of
Toronto
