The Pentecostal World offers a comprehensive and critical exploration of one of the most dynamic and diverse manifestations of contemporary Christianity. In contrast to many books on Pentecostalism, this collection of essays from across continents does not seek to synthesize and simplify the movement's inherent diversity and fragmented dispersion. Instead, the global flows of Pentecostalism are firmly rooted in local histories and expressions, as well as the various modes of their worldwide reproduction. The book thus advocates for a fresh understanding of Pentecostal and Charismatic movements that accounts for the simultaneous processes of pluralization and homogenization in contemporary World Christianity.

Written by a distinguished team of international contributors from various disciplines, the volume comprises six parts, each offering a critical perspective on classical themes in the study of Pentecostalism. Led by a programmatic introduction, the thirty-six chapters within these parts delve into a diverse range of themes: history and historiography, conversion, spirit beliefs and exorcism, prosperity, politics, gender relations, sexual identities, racism, development, migration, pilgrimage, interreligious relations, media, ecumenism, and academic research.

The Pentecostal World is an indispensable resource for students and researchers in anthropology, history, political science, religious studies, sociology, and theology. It will also be highly valuable for those in related fields such as culture studies, black studies, ethnic studies, and gender studies.
