This is an interdisciplinary study that explores the influence of Christian fundamentalism in a variety of nations in Africa, Latin America and Asia. The authors explain how American evangelicalism has developed its fundamentalist forms and then succesfully exported them.
As the pressures of globalization are crushing local traditions, millions of uprooted people are buying into a new American salvation product. This fundamentalist Christianity, a fusion of American popular religion and politics, is one of the most significant cultural influences exported from the United States. With illuminating case studies based on extensive field research, Exporting the American Gospel demonstrates how Christian fundamentalism has taken hold in many nations in Africa, Latin America and Asia.
