Isi artikel

Addressing the issue of identity construction, this article shows that global fluxes of information provide new resources to actors in specific settings. The field analysed here is that of Anglicanism in Africa. Building on theoretical elements from Arjun Appadurai, Pierre Bourdieu and Michael Schudson, the discussion is based on empirical material concerning the relationship between media, religion and culture in a small religious community in Zimbabwe.
