Learning to Believe in Papua New Guinea -- 11. Witchcraft Simplex: Experiences of Globalized Pentecostalism in Central and Northwestern Tanzania.This open access book presents fresh ethnographic work from the regions of Africa and Melanesia—where the popularity of charismatic Christianity can be linked to a revival and transformation of witchcraft. The volume demonstrates how the Holy Spirit has become an adversary to the reconfirmed presence of witches, demons, and sorcerers as manifestations of evil. We learn how this is articulated in spiritual warfare, in crusades, and in healing or witch-killing raids. The contributors highlight what happens to phenomena that people address as locally specific witchcraft or sorcery when re-molded within the universalist Pentecostal demonology, vocabulary, and confrontational methodology. .Contemporary Anthropology of ReligionEthnologyEthnographyEvangelicalismReligion and sociologyEthnologyAfricaEthnographySocial Anthropologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12030Ethnographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X12060Evangelicalism and Pentecostalismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A3110Religion and Societyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A8020African Culturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411030Holy Spiritcharismatic Christianityindigenous Pentecostal movementsevangelismdemonologyethnographyEthnology.Ethnography.Evangelicalism.Religion and sociology.EthnologyEthnography.Social Anthropology.Ethnography.Evangelicalism and Pentecostalism.Religion and Society.African Culture.306Rio Knutedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMacCarthy Michelleedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBlanes Ruyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910231245703321Pentecostalism and Witchcraft2277693UNINA
