It introduces readers to the concept of planetary urbanisation, with the view of deepening an understanding of urbanisation and its all-pervasive impact on the planet, people and places from a theological perspective. A critical theological reading of 'the urban' is also provided, deliberating on bridging the divide between voices from the Global South and the Global North. In doing so, this book simultaneously seeks out robust and dynamic faith constructs, expressed in various forms and embodiments of justice. The methodology chosen transcended narrow disciplinary boundaries, situating reflections between and across disciplines, in the interface between scholarly reflection and an activist faith, as well as between local rootedness and global connectedness. This was facilitated by the collected gathering of authors, spanning all continents, various Christian faith traditions and multiple disciplines, as well as a range of methodological approaches.The book endeavours to contribute to knowledge production in a number of ways. Firstly, it suggests the inadequacy of most dominant faith expressions in the face of all-pervasive forces of urbanisation, and it also provides clues as to the possibility of fostering potent alternative imaginaries. Secondly, it explores a decolonial faith that is expressed in various forms of justice. It is an attempt to offer concrete embodiments of what such a faith could look like in the context of planetary urbanisation. Thirdly, the book does not focus on one specific urban challenge or mode of ministry but rather introduces the concept of planetary urbanisation and then offers critical lenses with which to interrogate its consequences and challenges. It considers concrete and liberating faith constructs in areas ranging from gender, race, economic inequality, a solidarity economics and housing to urban violence, indigeneity and urbanisation, the interface between economic and environmental sustainability, and grass-roots theological education.HTS religion & society series;v. 3.2617-5819City churchesSociology, RuralReligious aspectsUrbanizationCity churchesfast(OCoLC)fst00862116Sociology, RuralReligious aspectsfast(OCoLC)fst01123953Urbanizationfast(OCoLC)fst01162722City churches.Sociology, RuralReligious aspects.Urbanization.City churches.Sociology, RuralReligious aspects.Urbanization.261/.1De Beer Stéphan1967-BOOK9910765881803321Just faith1931835UNINA02621nam 2200613Ia 450 991077705560332120230308214423.01-280-52335-20-19-536451-1(CKB)1000000000414274(EBL)271448(OCoLC)239885530(SSID)ssj0000279402(PQKBManifestationID)11223264(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000279402(PQKBWorkID)10260044(PQKB)10629576(MiAaPQ)EBC271448(Au-PeEL)EBL271448(CaPaEBR)ebr10142182(CaONFJC)MIL52335(EXLCZ)99100000000041427419870903d1988 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierFamilies and farmhouses in nineteenth-century America vernacular design and social change /Sally McMurryNew York :Oxford University Press,1988.1 online resource (xiii, 261 pages) illustrationsBased on author's thesis--Cornell University.0-19-504475-4 Includes bibliography: p. 225-250 and index.CONTENTS; ONE: Introduction; TWO: The Progressive Agriculturist's Vernacular; THREE: The Shape of Cooperation: The Farmstead as Workplace, 1830-1855; FOUR: The Spheres Diverge: Work on the Progressive Farmstead, 1855-1885; FIVE: City Parlor, Country Sitting Room; SIX: Supervision to Self-Culture: Children's Spaces on the Progressive Farmstead; SEVEN: From Production to Consumption: Progressive Farmhouse Design at the Turn of the Century; EPILOGUE; BIBLIOGRAPHY; PICTURE SOURCES AND CREDITS; INDEXA look at the changing design of 19th-century American farmhouses, collected from a wide range of agricultural periodicals of the time.Families and farmhouses in 19th-century AmericaFarmhousesUnited StatesVernacular architectureUnited StatesArchitectureUnited StatesHistory19th centuryArchitecture and societyUnited StatesFarmhousesVernacular architectureArchitectureHistoryArchitecture and society728/.67/0973McMurry Sally Ann1954-250109MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910777055603321Families and Farmhouses in nineteenth century America632221UNINA
