"How do religions spread in today's world, where Christian missions have lost influence
and modern nations have replaced colonial empires? Religion on the Move! is a collection
of essays charting new religious expansions. Contemporary evangelists may be Nigerian,
Korean, Brazilian or Congolese, working at the grassroots and outside the mainstream
in Pentecostal, reformist Islamic, and Hindu spiritual currents. While transportation
and media provide newfound mobility, the mission field may be next door, in Europe,
North America, and within the "South," where migrants from Africa, Asia, and Latin
America settle. These essays, using perspectives from religious studies, ethnography,
history and sociology, show that immigrants, women, and other disempowered peoples
transmit their faiths from everywhere to everywhere, engaging in globalization from
below." --from back cover
