The Rosary and the Microphone explores U2 as a politically engaged
band that manifests a particular brand of Christianity through the
band's mediation in a global context and for a global audience.
Through the primarily semiotic study of U2's various mediations,
this book maps the band's strategies for negotiating its place in
the world as a global band--and mediated brand--and as a proponent
of a kind of cosmopolitanism, or global care. U2's brand is heavily
informed by Bono's own personal religious formation. This religious
viewpoint is expressed in a global concern--a Christian
cosmopolitanism--that looks outward and draws others to do the
same.
