Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Christians In The Cities Of Johannesburg And Pretoria : Becoming In An African Megacity

Taking a glimpse into the impact of Christianity in one of Africa’s largest and fastest-evolving megacities, located in the Gauteng City-Region, this book explores how faith shapes the city and its society. Addressing a scarcity of religious scholarship in the field of urban studies, the book focuses on the Johannesburg-Pretoria corridor and Christian faith expressions in this evolving megacity.Stéphan de Beer highlights how city and faith are in conversation and explores various expressions of Christian faith in an ever-changing urban landscape. Connecting socio-spatial change in post-apartheid South African cities with the changing Christian landscape, the connections and disconnections between Christian faith expressions and urban change are interrogated.Chapters feature wide coverage across both cities, including places like Soweto and Sandton, Sunnyside and Soshanguve, and everything in between.Examining these contexts where global migration and Christian faith increasingly co-exist, the book provides valuable insights to students of religion, sociology and urban studies.
