Chasing religion in the Caribbeanethnographic journeys from Antigua to Trinidad /[electronic resource] :by Peter Marina. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan US :2016. - xxiii, 242 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Foreword -- Chapter One: Spiritual Rumblings in the Caribbean -- Chapter Two: The Study of Charismatic Christianity in the English-Speaking Caribbean -- Chapter Three: Charismatic Ethnography in the Charismatic Caribbean -- Chapter Four: Antigua -- Chapter Five: Trinidad -- Chapter Six: St. Lucia, Barbados, and Dominica -- Chapter Seven: St. Kitts and Montserrat -- Chapter Eight: Summary and Final Thoughts -- Epilogue: Haiti.

Focusing on ten islands through the Caribbean, this ethnography examines how charismatic religious leaders develop creative transnational religious networking strategies that help spread the movement and increase its potential to become a greater force in shaping the future in the English-speaking Caribbean. The large and explosive global Charismatic movement spread in powerful ways in the small and tranquil English-speaking Caribbean. It is here in the deep Caribbean world of demonic possessions, spiritual demons, and supernatural healers where the charismatic movement continues to shape a resilient culture. Placing the charismatic movement in the realm of culture provides some highly surprising findings that reveal the potential of a religious movement and its ability for change in a late-modern social world.
