This volume offers innovative approaches to the study of religion.
It brings together junior and senior scholars from the Global North
and South. The contributors also explore the context-specific
formations of religion and religious knowledge production in an
increasingly instable and incalculable, globalized world. In the
spirit of the challenging slogan, "Religion in Motion. Rethinking
Religion, Knowledge and Discourse in a Globalizing World," the book
bundles voices from a great variety of cultural and academic
backgrounds. It offers readers a cross-continental exchange of
innovative approaches in the study of religion. Coverage intersects
religion, gender, economics, and politics. In addition, it
de-centers European perspectives and brings in perspectives from
the Global South. Chapters examine such topics as feminine power
and agency in the Ile Axe Oxum Abalo , queering the Trinity, and
faith and professionalism in humanitarian encounters in
post-earthquake Haiti. Coverage also explores notions of
development in African initiated churches and their implications
for development policy, the study of religion as the study of
discourse construction, rethinking the religion/secularism binary
in world politics, and more. This book will appeal to students and
researchers with an interest in Religion and Society, Philosophy
and Religion, and Religion and Gender.
