Recenzii
"This is a rich, informative and well researched book which contributes significantly to studies on churches in Zimbabwe." - Ezra Chitando, University of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe
"Joram Tarusarira has written a fascinating study, exploring the relationship between religion, society and politics in Zimbabwe. His account explains how religion is contributing to democratisation and reconciliation in the country, often written off as a basket case beyond redemption. Tarusarira shows that the often subtle interplay between religious and secular political actors can contribute to post-conflict rebuilding in Zimbabwe and hopefully to help heal the wounds of the past. I thoroughly recommend the book for anyone interested in the intricacies of the relationship between politics and religion in Africa." - Jeffrey Haynes, London Metropolitan University, UK
"Joram Tarusarira offers a thorough, up-to-date and compelling analysis of the role of religion in contemporary Zimbabwe. Pushing beyond studies that focus on Zimbabwe's mainline churches, Tarusarira draws on excellent fieldwork to analyse the religio-political organisations that are working on the ground to promote reconciliation. His development of the concept of religious non-conformism, which explains how such organisations are well-equipped to spark change, is a valuable contribution to the social scientific study of religion. This book deserves a wide readership among those interested in the relationships between religion, politics, reconciliation and social change." - Gladys Ganiel, Queen's University Belfast, UK

Descriere
This book critically analyses the role of religio-political organisations in advocating democratisation and reconciliation in Zimbabwe against acquiescent, silenced or co-opted mainstream churches. Tarusarira analyses activities of religious organisations that deviate from the mainline churches’ and the political elite's position with regard to rel
