Using Christianity in Africa, this book explores how religion influences political participation, specifically through religious sermons and when citizens experience them repeatedly. It will interest scholars of comparative and African politics, particularly those studying political participation, religion, ethnic politics, and political culture.
1. Religion as metaphysical instruction, and its influence on political participation; 2. Christianity and politics in Africa; 3. Differences in contemporary Christian sermon content; 4. Effects of sermons on citizens: evidence from the lab; 5. Recharging sermon influence: evidence from surveys and focus groups; 6. Group-level political engagement; 7. Implications and conclusions.
