  • Life After Genocide

    Open AccessLauren C Ng, Naphtal Ahishakiye et al.ARTICLEInternational Perspectives in…2015

    Thousands of orphaned survivors of the 1994 Rwandan Genocide against the Tutsi were not only exposed to extraordinarily severe forms of violence, but also many of these children took on the responsibility of caring and providing for other child survivors. This study describes the poverty, educational attainment, social support and mental health of orphaned heads of household (OHH) fourteen years after the genocide, and analyzes how violence expos…

  • Narrative characteristics of genocide testimonies predict posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms years later

    Lauren C Ng, Naphtal Ahishakiye et al.ARTICLEPsychological Trauma Theory…2015

    Cognitive theories of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) suggest that trauma narratives that make greater use of somatosensory, perceptual, and negative emotion words may be indicators of greater risk of PTSD symptoms (Ehlers & Clark, 2000). The purpose of this study was to analyze whether the way that survivors of the 1994 Rwandan Genocide against the Tutsi naturally construct genocide testimonies predicts PTSD symptoms 6 years later. One hund…

  • Spirit and Power

    Donald E Miller, Kimon H Sargeant et al.BOOKSpirit and Power2013

    Pentecostalism is the fastest growing religious movement in the world, currently estimated to have at least 500 million adherents if one also includes charismatic Catholics and Protestants who are part of the renewal movement. Initially, Pentecostal converts were from the lower strata of society and many theorists viewed this form of religion as a compensation for their poverty. The social ecology of Pentecostal Christians is rapidly shifting, in…

  • Spirit and Power

    Donald E Miller, Kimon H Sargeant et al.BOOKSpirit and Power2013

    Pentecostalism is the fastest growing religious movement in the world, currently estimated to have at least 500 million adherents. In the movement's early years, most Pentecostal converts lived in relative poverty, yet the rapidly shifting social ecology of Pentecostal Christians includes many middle-class individuals, as well as an increasing number of young adults attracted by the music and vibrant worship of these churches. The stereotypical v…

  • Civil Society and Religion

    Donald E MillerCHAPTERThe Oxford handbook of civil…2012

    In the past two decades, “civil society” has become a central organizing concept in the social sciences. Occupying the middle ground between the state and private life, the civil sphere encompasses everything from associations to protests to church groups to nongovernmental organizations. Interest in the topic exploded with the decline of statism in the 1980s and 1990s, and many of our current debates about politics and social policy are informed…

  • To Change the World

    Donald E MillerARTICLESociology of Religion2011

    The structure of this book is quite simple. Hunter creates a three-part typology of ways in which Christians have attempted to change the world; he then systematically argues for the inadequacy of each strategy; and, finally, he proposes a fourth alternative that he says fits his theory of power and cultural change. To give away the ending of this review, I found his three-fold typology to be useful at a descriptive level, but I was dissatisfied …

  • Progressive Pentecostalism

    Donald E MillerARTICLEJournal of Beliefs and Values2009

    The emergence of Pentecostalism, its worldwide spread and its transformation of itself, in many places, into a religion of social engagement is described and analysed

  • Global Pentecostalism

    Donald E Miller, TETSUNAO YAMAMORIBOOKGlobal Pentecostalism2007

    How and why is Christianity's center of gravity shifting to the developing world? To understand this rapidly growing phenomenon, Donald E. Miller and Tetsunao Yamamori spent four years traveling the globe conducting extensive on-the-ground research in twenty different countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Europe. The result is this vividly detailed book which provides the most comprehensive information available on Pentecostalism, the fas…

  • SSSR Presidential Address-Progressive Pentecostals

    Open AccessDonald E MillerARTICLEJournal for the Scientific Study…2007Citada por: 5Referências: 7

    For many scholars it is “old news” that Pentecostalism is growing exponentially, especially in the Southern Hemisphere (Cox 1995; Jenkins 2002; Martin 1990; Stoll 1990). What is not well understood is that many Pentecostal churches—especially in Africa, Asia, and Latin America—are involved in significant social ministries related to education, health care, and economic development. This defies the stereotype that Pentecostals are focused primaril…

  • Variations in the Diffusion of State Lottery Adoptions

    Open AccessPatrick A Pierce, Donald E MillerARTICLEPolicy Studies Journal1999Citada por: 32Referências: 29

    Previous studies of morality policy adoption and diffusion often have failed to define the characteristics of a morality policy that result in certain kinds of politics. For example, studies of lottery diffusion include all lottery adoptions, treating them as possessing characteristics that render their politics similar. In this article we explore the possibility that different types of lotteries generate different types of politics. Although all…

    Substantial changes in worship style and organizational structure are transforming the way Christianity will be experienced in the next millennium. The style of Christianity dominated by eighteenth-century hymns, a routinized liturgy, and bureaucratized layers of social organization is gradually dying. In its place are emerging hundreds of new-paradigm churches, which are appropriating stylistic and organizational elements from our postmodern cul…

  • Reinventing American Protestantism

    Donald E MillerBOOKReinventing American Protestantism1997

    During the past thirty years the American religious landscape has undergone a dramatic change. More and more churches meet in converted warehouses, many have ministers who've never attended a seminary, and congregations are singing songs whose melodies might be heard in bars or nightclubs. Donald E. Miller's provocative examination of these 'new paradigm churches' - sometimes called megachurches or postdenominational churches shows how they are r…

    L'A. montre que les nouveaux mouvements evangeliques sont des congregations formees a partir de convertis et de transfuges. Ceux-ci proviennent en general des rangs catholiques ou protestants mais beaucoup avaient deja evolue dans les cercles evangeliques auparavant. Comme de nombreux transfuges et convertis, ils expriment leurs croyances de maniere franche. Les celebrations dominicales sont l'occasion de temoigner de leur energie religieuse. Il …

  • Survivors

    Donald E Miller, Lorna Touryan MillerBOOKSurvivors1994

    Between 1915 and 1923, over one million Armenians died, victims of a genocidal campaign that is still denied by the Turkish government. Thousands of other Armenians suffered torture, brutality, deportation. Yet their story has received scant attention. Through interviews with a hundred elderly Armenians, Donald and Lorna Miller give the "forgotten genocide" the hearing it deserves. Survivors raise important issues about genocide and about how peo…
