  • Ghanaian Methodist Spirituality in Relation with Neo- Pentecostalism
    Ghanaian Methodist Spirituality GHANAIAN METHODIST SPIRITUALITY IN RELATION WITH NEO- PENTECOSTALISM Doris E. Yalley Abstract: Contemporary Ghanaian Methodist spirituality exhibits varied religious tendencies. A cursory look at some activities which take place at the Church’s prayer centres reveals worship patterns of the historical Wesleyan Tradition, patterns of the Pentecostal and Neo-Charismatic. To understand how worship patterns promote har- monious religious environments for members of the Church, the study examined some of the practices which could have possibly informed such religious expressions within the Methodist Church Ghana (MCG). The findings revealed a religious disposition fashioned to re- flect the Church’s foundational heritage, tempered with ecumenical models integrated to address the Ghanaian cultural context. Keywords: Wesleyan Spirituality, Neo-Pentecostalism, Ghanaian Methodism Introduction A careful examination of the contemporary Ghanaian Methodist reli- gious scene reveals varied worship patterns.1 The phenomenon raises the question whether the contemporary liturgical praxis is a rebirth of the historical Wesleyan Tradition or a manifestation of the Pentecos- tal/Neo-Pentecostal waves blowing over the Ghanaian religious scene, or a ‘locally brewed’ spirituality emerging from Indigenous Ghanaian cultures. This paper argues that the Wesleyan Tradition practised by the founding Fathers can be described as ‘Pentecostal.’ Furthermore, against the view of some Ghanaian Methodists, including a former Director of the Meth- odist Prayer and Renewal Programme (MPRP), that the MCG has com- promised its Wesleyan identity, a three-fold aim is pursued: a) To evaluate the nature of Methodism in contemporary Ghana; b) To examine the vision and mission of the Wesleyan Methodist Missionary Society (WMMS); 1 The Church is one of the largest and oldest denomination in Ghana, birthed out of the early Christian missionary activities in the then Gold Coast in the year 1835.

  • Large-Scale Mining and Ecological Imperialism in Africa: the Politics of Mining and Conservation of the Ecology in Ghana
    Large-scale mining and ecological imperialism in Africa: the politics of mining and conservation of the ecology in Ghana Jasper Abembia Ayelazuno1 Lord Mawuko-Yevugah University for Development Studies, Ghana Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration, Ghana Abstract The article draws on the insights of political ecology to illuminate the politics shaping the enforcement of environmental regulation in the mining sector of Ghana. We argue that the Ghanaian state uses strong-arm measures against artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) operators, particularly, the subaltern classes engaged in the industry for survival. Periodically, the state deploys the military and the police to clamp down on ASM for destroying the environment, but treats with kid gloves foreign companies engaged in large-scale mining (LSM), wreaking similar disastrous ecological effects on mining communities. The state believes that LSM by foreign companies is a source of foreign direct investment (FDI) and foreign mining companies should be incentivized to come and stay in the country. Presented in broad-brush strokes as illegal (galamsey), the Ghanaian state sees ASM as an environmental menace to be fought with all the coercive apparatuses that it can command. Disputing this claim, the article argues that mining-FDI is essentially ecological imperialism, wreaking havoc on the ecosystem of mining communities whose livelihood strategies are in conflict with the accumulation and political interests of foreign mining companies and the Ghanaian political class respectively. The article demonstrates that concerns over the harmful impacts of mining on the ecology of Ghana are neither class-neutral nor free of politics. They are rather highly imbricated in power structures and relations, in which the interest of the ruling class is supreme in the enforcement of environmental regulations in Ghana.
