World Christianity, Urbanization and Identity

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“World Christianity, Urbanization and Identity is a landmark volume that represents a remarkable contribution to the study of world Christianity. This volume engages with crucial methodological, sociological, historiographic, ethical and theological issues regarding the complex relationship between Christianity and the city. Taken together, the essays in this book critically analyze not only several ways in which processes of urbanization help construct Christian identities, but also how Christian formations and developments have influenced urban arrangements.”
