From its genesis in 1921, Kimbanguism has constituted one of the most fascinating socio-cultural movements of the Kongo region. This interdisciplinary collection covers the socio-cultural dynamics of the Kimbanguist church and its contribution to African studies over the past hundred years. Scholars renowned for their Kongo studies work, such as Wyatt MacGaffey, John M. Janzen, and John K. Thornton, contributed to this collection.
