Reviews

A profound psychological analysis of trance as well as a sociological analysis of the nature of these so-called trance religions in Trinidad and Tobago. -- Nova Religio: The Journal of Alternative and Emergent Religions


This fine comparative ethnography serves both as a close empirical description of what is happening on the ground in Trinidad and Tobago and as a productive analytical exercise on contrasting politicizations of religions in relation to political campaigns, law, and institution building.
