The Place of Cultural Symbols and Religious Artifacts in the Mediaeval Church

The main goals are to determine how this synergy not only enhanc…
A Religio-Scientific Paradigm for Ethico-Value Reorientation in Africa
This study advances and critically evaluates a religio-scientific paradigm as a framework for ethico-value reorientation in contemporary African societies. Amid persistent moral challenges— including corruption, social fragmentation, environmental degradation, and declining institutional trust—the paper contends that neither religious ethics nor scientific rationality, in isolation, is sufficient to address the complexity of Africa’s ethical cris…
Continuity and Change in African Indigenous Religions
The rapid digital transformation presents a dilemma for African Indigenous Religions; the preservation of traditional practices and beliefs in the face of globalizing forces and technological advancements is sacrosanct.

This paper discusses the interaction between AIRs and digit…
Uruguay's Energy Transition and Intergenerational Justice in the Framework of Ecological Jurisprudence
The global transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy is one of the most pressing environmental and social challenges of the 21st century. From an ecological jurisprudential perspective, this process is closely linked to the principle of intergenerational justice, which requires states to guarantee the environmental rights of future generations. This study aims at two things: first, to provide a critical legal analysis of Uruguay's fossil f…
Religious syncretism in Africa
The synthesis between Christianity and African traditional religion yields both favourable and unfavourable outcomes. To enhance and reinforce the African cultural heritage and values, it is important to discard the dehumanising and explicit elements while firmly embracing the positive components. The researchers employed a qualitative research methodology in the course of this study. This entails the widespread utilisation of the primary and sec…
Achieving Gender Balance Education through the Lens of Neo-Pentecostalism
In order to be formidable and great in any given civilization, gender equality is a necessary condition. The fundamental formula for a functioning society calls for partnership and a fair division of labour between the sexes. Yet, a skewed approach has been used in which masculinity has taken precedence over femininity and women have constantly been left out of decision-making throughout history and in various communities. They are routinely disc…
Traversing Local-Global Religious Terrain
The term “transnational” is appropriate to describe the globalized Brotherhood of the Cross and Star movement, and as such the term transnational will be used interchangeably for BCS tendencies towards traversing local-global terrain in this research paper. In the past, it has been falsely claimed that African Christianity was founded by and for Africans. African Christianity experts today refute this idea because the faith has spread successfull…

Tiv people religion, culture and symbols are synonymous and characteristically outstanding in the Nigerian culture. Symbolism is thus …
