Decolonising knowledge in practice
‘Believing in planets doesn’t oppress anyone’
While existing research has explored the impact of religious and spiritual beliefs on the mental health of transgender individuals, little is known about how these factors interact with other determinants, such as socioeconomic status, healthcare access, and migratory experiences, to shape their overall wellbeing. This paper aims to address this gap by exploring how transgender migrants in Spain navigate their health and wellbeing through the len…
Spirituality, wellbeing and risks in contemporary societies
Increasing numbers of adults and young people in contemporary societies are identifying as ‘spiritual but not religious’ or as ‘spiritual and religious’ (Fedele and Knibbe 2020; Halafoff, Singleton
Transgender bodies as battlefields in science and religion
The last decade has seen an intensification of anti-trans mobilisations as backlash to efforts to expand rights and increased visibility in multiple countries. Analysis of newspaper coverage in Spain and the United States reveals that science and religion are employed in justification of such mobilisations. However, neither the sociological study of gender and sexuality or of science and religion has paid attention to this intersection. Drawing u…
Behind the Numbers
This article examines gender-transformative programmes that seek to engage religious leaders in gender-based violence prevention across southern African countries. It focuses on the ‘gender-transformative’ paradigm implemented by an international South-African NGO, in collaboration with local and global organizations. On the basis of two years of ethnographic fieldwork, the research uncovers local dynamics that challenge the effectiveness of exis…
Governing the (in)visible
Entre el hablar y el silencio
El presente artículo aborda las narrativas de transformación manejadas por líderes de comunidades religiosas que participan en talleres para la prevención de violencia sexual y de género (VSG) llevados a cabo en distintas localidades africanas por una ONG con sede en Sudáfrica. En concreto, buscamos revelar las formas en que quienes participan en dichos talleres dan sentido a la transformación de género en territorios religiosos y seculares; así …
Activismos y Narrativas Biomédicas sobre Género y Sexualidad
Sex has been problematized and is no longer considered only a biological phenomenon, to give way to the discussion on sexuality and to make the body visible as the space where meaning-producing relationships materialize
Conspirituality in Covid-19 Times
This article focuses on the development of COVID-19 anti-vaccination movements in Spain and explores their relationship with the phenomenon of conspirituality. By using a mixed-methods approach combining big data analysis with small ethnographic data analysis, we examine how conspiracy theories and spiritual ideas circulate, merge and crystallize in particular practices and encounters in Spain. The big data analysis of Twitter conversations revea…
Tactical Activism
This article examines religious leaders' engagements with gender transformative activism during prevention training workshops for sexual and gender-based violence. I draw on ethnographic fieldwork carried out in 2017 and 2018 in a South African NGO that promotes gender equality and human rights across Africa. My aim is twofold: to explore the tensions between the private and public dimensions of religious leaders' engagement with gender transform…
The Social Architecture of Belonging in the African Pentecostal Diaspora
From megachurches in movie theatres to prayer groups held in living rooms, Pentecostals worldwide are constantly carrying out religious activities that ultimately aim to integrate diverse worshippers into the kingdom of God. Born-again Christians refashion their 'ways of being' by breaking down and re-establishing the interpersonal relationships shaped and changed by emerging diasporic modernities. I examined some of these changing ways of being …
Pentecostalism and a Global Community of Sentiment
This chapter sheds light on discourses developed by Pentecostal leaders regarding their ability to (re)produce emotionally-based narratives associated with the vicissitudes faced by African migrants within wider South African and Spanish society. By analysing narrative activities such as counselling, sermons, preaching, life testimonies and church leaders’ life journeys I explore their articulation of the tensions in migrants’ integration process…
Born a pastor, being a woman
Women’s presence in Pentecostal leadership positions has slowly increased over the past decades, which raises new questions on the reconfiguration of gender roles and its relationship with religious doctrines. Based on empirical research, this article examines the construction of female leadership and religious authority within Pentecostal churches in a diasporic context. We draw upon biographical narratives of six female Pentecostal pastors—thre…
African pastors and the religious (re)production of a visual culture
The (re)production of visual material is an extended practice amongst Pentecostal-Charismatics worldwide and church leaders seem to play a decisive role in engendering such practice. While promoting spiritual missions and institutional visions, pastors reinforce their personae in accordance to the “spiritual gifts” they perform. This article explores the forging of a visual culture that legitimates such performances, through the usage of posters …
Spiritual brokers
In this article, we examine the notion of instability by engaging with migrants’ re-constructions of belonging, in both global north and south cityscapes, under the auspices of Pentecostalism. We analyse African Pastors’ life histories in order to generate insights into how they mediate the tensions of migratory processes with their evolving personas as pastors. The research is based on three years of fieldwork (2012–2015) with Pentecostal church…
