Summary: | The phenomenon of African new religious movements in 20th century Europe has been much neglected by contemporary historians of religion. Using Britain and Germany as case studies, the author explores the nascence, development and proliferation rate of CCC (Celestical of Christ) in the African diaspora of European countries. He looks into factors that facilitated the re-packaging and transmission of African Christianity to what hitherto was the home of Christianity. (DÜI-Sen) |
