  • Religion and Geography
    Park, C. (2004) Religion and geography. Chapter 17 in Hinnells, J. (ed) Routledge Companion to the Study of Religion. London: Routledge RELIGION AND GEOGRAPHY Chris Park Lancaster University INTRODUCTION At first sight religion and geography have little in common with one another. Most people interested in the study of religion have little interest in the study of geography, and vice versa. So why include this chapter? The main reason is that some of the many interesting questions about how religion develops, spreads and impacts on people's lives are rooted in geographical factors (what happens where), and they can be studied from a geographical perspective. That few geographers have seized this challenge is puzzling, but it should not detract us from exploring some of the important themes. The central focus of this chapter is on space, place and location - where things happen, and why they happen there. The choice of what material to include and what to leave out, given the space available, is not an easy one. It has been guided mainly by the decision to illustrate the types of studies geographers have engaged in, particularly those which look at spatial patterns and distributions of religion, and at how these change through time. The real value of most geographical studies of religion in is describing spatial patterns, partly because these are often interesting in their own right but also because patterns often suggest processes and causes. Definitions It is important, at the outset, to try and define the two main terms we are using - geography and religion. What do we mean by 'geography'? Many different definitions have been offered in the past, but it will suit our purpose here to simply define geography as "the study of space and place, and of movements between places".

  • Wahhabism in the Balkans
    k Advanced Research and Assessment Group Balka ns Series 08/06 Defence Academy of the United Kingdom Wahhabism in the Balkans Kenneth Morrison Key Points * Growing concern over the rise of Wahhabism in the Balkans have dictated that the issue has shifted from the margins to the mainstream, fast becoming recognised as one the key political-security issues in the Western Balkan region. * The growth of Wahhabi groups in the region should be treated with caution. Incidents involving Wahhabi groups in Serbia (including Kosovo), Montenegro, and Macedonia demonstrate that the Wahhabi movement is no longer isolated within the territorial confines of Bosnia and Herzegovina. * Its proliferation presents a challenge for already strained inter- ethnic relations and, more importantly, intra-Muslim relations in the region. It is imperative that the ongoing situation is not ignored or misunderstood by Western policy-makers. Contents Introduction 1 The Roots and Channels of Wahhabism 2 Wahhabism in Bosnia and Herzegovina 3 The Wahhabi Movement in Serbian Sandžak 7 Montenegro and Macedonia: The Islamic Community Prevails 9 Conclusion 10 08/06 Wahhabism in the Balkans Kenneth Morrison Introduction Followers of the doctrine of Wahhabism have established a presence and become increasingly active throughout the Western Balkan region during the last decade, most notably in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Sandžak (Serbia and Montenegro). The war in Bosnia, which raged between 1992 and 1995, changed irreversibly the character of Bosnian Islam. Even before the outbreak of war, internal strains within the Muslim SDA (Party for Democratic Action) emerged between a more moderate, secular faction led by Adil Zufilkarpašić, and a more religious and fundamentalist faction, led by Alija Izetbegović.1 One of the key fundamental changes wrought by this internal struggle was the change in the nature and structure of Bosnian Islam.

  • Vernacular Regions in Kansas 73
    vernacular regions in kansas james r. shortridge Students of American culture are accustomed to seeing the nation divided into regions at many scales. At one level phrases such as New England, the South, and the Middle West are used to define areas of supposed homogeneity, and the regionalization process continues at increasingly finer scales until neighborhoods and similar sized units appear. It is an important, but rarely asked, question whether or not these regional creations of academicians and others bear a re­ semblance to what one may call vernacular regions, those regions perceived to exist by people actually living in the places under con­ sideration. Vernacular regionalization is part of a larger issue of place aware­ ness or consciousness usually termed "sense of place." Such awareness has been a traditional concern of humanists and, in recent years, "sense of place" discussions have appeared with increasing frequency in popular publications. The issue has considerable practical im­ portance. Such varied activities as regional planning, business adver­ tising, and political campaigning all could profit from knowledge of how people perceptually organize space. It is ironic that modern America is discovering the importance of place awareness at the time when our increasingly mobile existence makes such a "sense" difficult to achieve. Few people now doubt the advantages, even the necessity, of being in intimate enough contact with a place to establish what Wendell Berry has termed "a continuous harmony" between man and the land.1 We lack information, however, on the status of our relation­ ship to the land. The study of vernacular regions perhaps can provide insights into this complex issue.

Posted By Russell Cobb On April 10, 2011 @ 9:22 am In Print Edition | 14 Comments I’m not much of a Facebook person. Most of the time, I passively scroll through status updates while avoiding doing something else. Recently, however, I set off a Facebook conversation that lasted for days, with far-flung acquaintances and distant relatives chiming in on what I thought was a perfectly reasonable assertion. Before I come to that assertion, let me ask you, dear reader, who I trust has at least a passing interest in the nation’s 46th state: Where is Oklahoma? Were someone on the street to ask you this question, you might turn to a political map of the United States and point to the meat cleaver above Texas. There it is, you would say, in the mid-south-central portion of the continental United States. But where is it culturally? Is it part of The South? The U.S. Census Bureau says so. Generations of venerable southern historians, such as C. Vann Woodward, have said so. And this was the assertion I casually made on Facebook. Actually, what I said was that, as a Southerner, the word “heritage” (as in “Southern heritage”) struck me as slightly sinister, but I wasn’t quite sure why. I was quickly shot down by the sister of a very good friend, who happens to live in Birmingham.

Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 40 (Winter 2017–2018): 244–261 244 Kansas History Dixie’s Disciples: The Southern Diaspora and Religion in Wichita, Kansas by Jay M. Price n the eve of Armistice Day in November 1926, the Defenders of the Christian Faith hosted a series of lectures in Wichita, Kansas, about the dangers of modernism, evolution, and textbooks that they asserted replaced sound religion with “the philosophy of evolutionary doctrine.” Founded just a year earlier, the Defenders hoped to use a series of daytime lectures at South Lawrence Baptist Church, followed by evening sessions at the city’s Arcadia Theater, to expose a dangerous secularism that was undermining American society. Local papers Ofound that the daytime events seemed to involve internecine conflicts among clergy, as when Rev. Morton Miller, chairman of the convention, railed against modernist bishops in his Methodist Episcopal denomination.1 The evening events, however, were dominated by the event’s star speaker, Minnesota Baptist preacher W. B. Riley. Wichita had seen its share of traveling evangelists, most notably Billy Sunday, who had conducted a six-week revival event in 1911. Now the arrival of someone of Riley’s stature connected Wichita to a profound shift that was taking place in American religion. Riley had been a major figure in the emerging fundamentalist movement. He was the key orga- nizer of the World’s Christian Fundamentals Association and was instrumental in promoting the term “fundamental- ist.”2 Riley was a friend of William Jennings Bryan, the charismatic antievolution icon who had conducted the legal defense for the state of Tennessee in the Scopes trial, and also of J.

Bragg APPROVED: COMMITTEE CHAIR Clarence C. Holland, Ed.D. COMMITTEE MEMBERS Hila J. Spear, R.N., Ph.D. Ellen Lowrie Black, Ed.D. CHAIR, GRADUATE STUDIES Scott B. Watson. Ph.D. iii Abstract Dan L Bragg: THE APPLICATION OF TRANSFORMATIONAL LEADERSHIP AMONG CHRISTIAN SCHOOL LEADERS IN THE SOUTHEAST AND THE MID- ATLANTIC NORTH REGIONS (Under the direction of Dr. Clarence C. Holland) School of Education, June 2008. Transformational Leadership is part of a growing body of research that is having impact in leadership development in every industry and service organization. The Christian schools leader can also take advantage of the ideas that integrate so well into Biblical principles. This causal comparative study utilizing correlation and parametric statistics (ANOVA) along with descriptive cross-sectional observation investigated the differences of Transformational leadership in two distinct regions to understand how transformational leadership responded to differing cultures. This research has taken a deeper look into the elements of transformational leadership that must be enacted for a Christian school to succeed and thrive in today’s changing world and procure a successful future for Christian education. There are many studies that suggested differences in aspects of culture will result in differences in the way transformational leadership is implemented and received.
