Christians in the City of Shanghai : A History Resurrected Above the Sea Paperback / softback
by Susangeline Y. (Nazarene Theological Seminary, USA) Patrick
Part of the Christians in the City: Studies in Contemporary Global Christianity series
Paperback / softback
Description
Examining the stories of diverse Christians in Shanghai, this book uses the city as a model to highlight how a minority religion in a city has interacted with other religions as well as social, cultural, political, and economic changes. Susangeline Y. Patrick illustrates how the history of Shanghai Christians sheds light on why and how Christians have accommodated social and political changes, and gives valuable insights into multiculturalism, globalization, sinicization, and ecclesiology.
The interreligious dialogues between Shanghai Christians and other traditions such as Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism, Islam, and Judaism throughout history provide worthy reflections on the roles of Christians in a multi-religious space.
