Vodou and Christianity in Interreligious Dialogue

World Religions

“Joseph, Désir, and Clorméus’s co-edited volume offers major contributions to interreligious dialogue in Haiti. The collection assembles valuable contemporary scholarship on the fraught historical relationship between practitioners of Christianity and Vodou, the epistemological and ideological developments necessary for meaningful interreligious dialogue, and important ideas for implementing reconciliation and ensuring constructive coexistence. These essential Haitian case studies critique imperial religious misthinking while laying conceptual and practical foundations for dialogue, healing, and mutual respect.”
