Jochen Becker, Katrin Klingan, Stephan Lanz, Kathrin Wildner (Eds.):

Urban studies have long viewed religion and urbanity as mutually exclusive. Global Prayers, in contrast, puts the case for just such reciprocal influences. The publication focuses on diverse urban assemblages and religious communities, recording and critically engaging with them.
