Moreover, this volume seeks to elucidate how these churches reshape the very notion of sustainable development and contribute to the decolonisation of development. Fostering both overarching and comparative perspectives, the book includes chapters on West Africa (Nigeria, Ghana, and Burkina Faso) and Southern Africa (Zimbabwe and South Africa). It aims to open up a subfield focused on African Initiated Christianity within the religion and development discourse, substantially broadening the scope of the existing literature. Written predominantly by scholars from the African continent, the chapters in this volume illuminate potentials and perspectives of African Initiated Christianity, combining theoretical contributions, essays by renowned church leaders, and case studies focusing on particular churches or regional contexts. 410 $aRoutledge Research in Religion and Development 606 $aSocial Science / Cultural & Ethnic Studies / General$2bisacsh 606 $aReligion / Christian Church$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science / Developing & Emerging Countries$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial sciences 615 7$aSocial Science / Cultural & Ethnic Studies / General 615 7$aReligion / Christian Church 615 7$aSocial Science / Developing & Emerging Countries 615 0$aSocial sciences. 702 $aO?hlmann$b Philipp 702 $aGra?b$b Wilhelm 702 $aFrost$b Marie-Luise 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910917301303321 996 $aAfrican Initiated Christianity and the Decolonisation of Development$94319447 997 $aUNINA
