migration and public discourse in world Christianity / Afe Adogame, Raimundo Barreto, Wanderley P. da Rosa -- Introduction :
"World Christianity is a faith on the move. Although humans have always migrated, the present phenomenon of mass migration is unprecedented in scale and global in reach. Understanding it has become increasingly important for world Christianity. This volume identifies and addresses several key topics in the discourse between world Christianity and migration. Senior and emerging scholars from all regions of the world contribute chapters on central issues, including the feminization of international migration; the theology of migration; south-south migration networks; the connection between world Christianity, migration, and civic responsibility; and the complicated relationship between migration, identity, and citizenship. It seeks to give voice to migrant narratives as vital sources for public reasoning and theology in the twenty-first century" -- page 4 of cover.
