Deskripsi
Study of the role of Jamaica's popular churches, particularly Baptist and Pentecostal, in their relations with the state and with a wider transnational world. Focuses on the relation between the experience of religion and the experience of race and class. Concludes that Jamaican Pentecostals experience inequality differently both from those who are non-religious and from Rastafarian groups.
