1. Matory, JL. "The Many Who Dance in Me: Afro-Atlantic Ontology and the Problem with 'Transnationalism." Transnational Transcendence: Essays on Religion and Globalization. Edited by Csordas, TJ.  (March, 2009.): 231-262. [repository]

   Abstract:
   This innovative collection examines the transnational movements, effects, and transformations of religion in the contemporary world, offering a fresh perspective on the interrelation between globalization and religion. Taken as a whole, Transnational Transcendence challenges some widely accepted ideas about this relationship, in particular, that international contemporary religious manifestations are secondary to the primary economic phenomenon of globalization.
