Religious Identities and the Global South

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of religious identities and globalization, the book examines how these identities are shaped by modernity and postmodernity in the Global South. It critiques the prevalent Western-centric narratives that often overlook the lived experiences of religion in Asia, emphasizing the historical significance of religion in resisting colonial domination. By juxtaposing scholarly approaches from the Global North and South, the author explores the broader social, political, cultural, and economic implications of these religious identities.
