Opis

To everybody's great relief, the Good Friday Agreement resulted in the cessation of the paramilitary violence that had ravaged Northern Ireland. This book shows how Christian worship has been implicated in sectarianism, and how it might become a prime location in which sectarianism can be challenged and transformed.

Recenzje

"A model for how insightful ethnography can lead to the enrichment of practical and constructive theology, it demonstrates how religious worship can be rooted into political worlds." – Choice

"The value of this book lies in its detail: its careful descriptions of actual practices and its comparison with other forms of practice within the same churches in different societies, and, most of all, in its critical perspective." – Journal of Church and State
