This phenomenon, known as Christianization and civilization, has transcended time and space, establishing a consistent domestication process. The colonized are taught to desire, yearn for, and embrace their occupation, seeing themselves through the eyes of their colonizers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWriting from various corners of the world, the scholars in this book showcase how occupation manifests within their social contexts and reveal unity in their struggle for liberation. Recognizing that where there is oppression, there is resistance, the contributors turn to religion. While questioning the logic, rationale, theology, and epistemology of the empires religion, they seek the liberative response of resistance, sometimes even employing the very religion of the occupiers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book offers a comprehensive exploration of the complex relationship between occupation, religion, and resistance, shedding light on the ways in which individuals and communities have resisted and challenged oppressive systems. It serves as a valuable resource for scholars, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the ongoing struggles for justice and liberation worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 608g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 239 x 160 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781978711372\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44102272778490,"sku":"9781978711372","price":46.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_9cdbef89-ebc5-4066-b2c9-0726a622a8dc.jpg?v=1667893807","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/resisting-occupation-a-global-struggle-for-liberation-9781978711372","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
