Proselytization has been viewed by some as an aggressive act of political domination. Proselytization Revisited offers a comprehensive overview of the many arguments for and against proselytization in different regions and contexts. Proselytization is examined in the context of rights talk, globalisation and culture wars. The volume brings together essays demonstrating the global significance of proselytization, ranging from Christians in India to Turkish Islamic Movements and the Wiccan use of modern media technologies. The cross-cultural and multidisciplinary nature of this collection of essays provides a fresh perspective and the book will be of value to readers interested in the dynamic interaction of beliefs, ideas and cultures. 606 $aProselytizing 615 0$aProselytizing. 676 $a207/.2 701 $aHackett$b Rosalind I.
