    Abstract: Co-authored by three anthropologists with lonǵterm expertise studying Pentecostalism in Vanuatu, Angola, and Papua New Guinea/the Trobriand Islands respectively, Going to Pentecost offers a comparative study of Pentecostalism in Africa and Melanesia, focusing on key issues as economy, urban sociality, and healing. More than an ordinary comparative book, it recognizes the changing nature of religion in the contemporary world ́ in particular the emergence of ́non-territoriaĺ religion (which is no longer specific to places or cultures) ́ and represents an experimental approach to the study of global religious movements in general and Pentecostalism in particular.

    Atlantic Perspectives : Places, Spirits and Heritage (2019)
    New York, NY : [s.n.]
    Details
    ISBN: 9781789204841
    Language: Undetermined
    Pages: 288 p.
    Edition: 1st edition
    DDC: 200.9
    Keywords: Black Atlantic; Atlantic Studies; Transatlantic Anthropology; Transatlantic History; Religion; Mobility; Belonging; Cultural Heritage; Placemaking
    Abstract: Focusing on mobility, religion, and belonging, the volume contributes to transatlantic anthropology and history by bringing together religion, cultural heritage and placemaking in the Atlantic world. The entanglements of these domains are ethnographically scrutinized to perceive the connections and disconnections of specific places which, despite a common history, are today very different in terms of secular regimes and the presence of religion in the public sphere. Ideally suited to a variety of scholars and students in different fields, Atlantic Perspectives will lead to new debates and conversations throughout the fields of anthropology, religion and history.

    World Heritage on the Ground : Ethnographic Perspectives (2016)
    New York, NY : [s.n.]
    Details
    ISBN: 9781785330926
    Language: Undetermined
    Pages: 336 p.
    Edition: 1st edition
    Series Statement: EASA Series 28
    Keywords: General Anthropology
    Abstract: The UNESCO World Heritage Convention of 1972 set the contemporary standard for cultural and natural conservation. Today, a place on the World Heritage List is much sought after for tourism promotion, development funding, and national prestige. Presenting case studies from across the globe, particularly from Africa and Asia, anthropologists with situated expertise in specific World Heritage sites explore the consequences of the World Heritage framework and the global spread of the UNESCO heritage regime. This book shows how local and national circumstances interact with the global institutional framework in complex and unexpected ways. Often, the communities around World Heritage sites are constrained by these heritage regimes rather than empowered by them.

    Anthropology and Nostalgia (2014)
    New York, NY : [s.n.]
    Details
    ISBN: 9781782384540
    Language: Undetermined
    Pages: 244 p.
    Edition: 1st edition
    Keywords: General Anthropology, Theory & Methodology in Anthropology
    Abstract: Nostalgia is intimately connected to the history of the social sciences in general and anthropology in particular, though finely grained ethnographies of nostalgia and loss are still scarce. Today, anthropologists have realized that nostalgia constitutes a fascinating object of study for exploring contemporary issues of the formation of identity in politics and history. Contributors to this volume consider the fabric of nostalgia in the fields of heritage and tourism, exile and diasporas, postcolonialism and postsocialism, business and economic exchange, social, ecological and religious movements, and nation building. They contribute to a better understanding of how individuals and groups commemorate their pasts, and how nostalgia plays a role in the process of remembering.

    A Prophetic Trajectory : Ideologies of Place, Time and Belonging in an Angolan Religious Movement (2014)
    New York, NY : [s.n.]

    ISBN: 9781782382737
    Language: Undetermined
    Pages: 248 p.
    Edition: 1st edition
    Keywords: Religion
    Abstract: Combining ethnographic and historical research conducted in Angola, Portugal, and the United Kingdom, A Prophetic Trajectory tells the story of Simão Toko, the founder and leader of one of the most important contemporary Angolan religious movements. The book explains the historical, ethnic, spiritual, and identity transformations observed within the movement, and debates the politics of remembrance and heritage left behind after Toko's passing in 1984. Ultimately, it questions the categories of prophetism and charisma, as well as the intersections between mobility, memory, and belonging in the Atlantic Lusophone sphere.
