Recenzii
This comprehensive introduction to Christianity in Hong Kong covers the spectrum of Christian interaction with culture, society, and politics and elucidates the development of local theology. It benefits scholars and the general public interested in religion amid social and political changes that have caught worldwide attention in the cosmopolitan city. I highly recommend it.
This portrait of Hong Kong Christianity is a treasure-trove of information and analysis. Meticulously researched, it provides a lively and accessible 360 degree review of Christians' theological, social, and artistic contributions to Hong Kong society. From migrant worker congregations to postcolonial theology, Brandner captures different aspects of this vibrant international, service-oriented, conservative, and progressive church, while offering incisive commentary on the ramifications of the political situation and changing church-state relations.
Brandner employs both topical and chronological approaches to give us a concise narrative of Hong Kong's church-state and church-society encounters ... His logical clarity and empirical insights make this easily accessible book an excellent introduction to the complexity of religious-secular relationship in today's Hong Kong.
