From global missionizing among proselytic faiths to mass migration
through religious diasporas, religion has traveled from one side of
the world and back again. It continues to play a prominent role in
shaping world politics and has been a vital force in the continued
emergence, spread, and creation of a transnational civil society.
Exploring how religious roots are shaping organizations that seek
to aid people across political and geographic boundaries - 'service
movements' - this book focuses on how religious movements establish
structures to assist people with basic human needs such as food,
clothing, shelter, education, and health. Examining a multitude of
faith traditions with origins in different parts of the world,
seven contributing chapters, with an introduction and conclusions
by the senior author, offer a unique discussion of the
intersections between religious transnationalism and social
movements.
