Multiple Faiths in Postcolonial Cities : Living Together after Empire Hardback
Edited by Jonathan Dunn, Heleen Joziasse, Raj Bharat Patta, Joseph Duggan
Part of the Postcolonialism and Religions series
Hardback
Description
This book addresses the challenges of living together after empire in many post-colonial cities.
It is organized in two sections. The first section focuses on efforts by people of multiple faiths to live together within their contexts, including such efforts within a neighborhood in urban Manchester; the array of attempts at creating multi-faith spaces for worship across the globe; and initiatives to commemorate divisive conflict together in Northern Ireland.
The second section utilizes particular postcolonial methods to illuminate pressing issues within specific contexts—including women’s leadership in an indigenous denomination in the variegated African landscape, and baptism and discipleship among Dalit communities in India.
In the context of growing multiculturalism in the West, this volume offers a postcolonial theological resource, challenging the epistemologies in the Western academy.
