This book was released on 2022-08-26 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection examines church-state relations in the European colonies in Africa during the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The chapters focus on the period stretching from the most agitated stages of the ‘scramble for Africa’ during the 1870s and 1880s, to the great wave of independence of African colonies in the 1950s and 60s, and culminates in a discussion of colonial legacies during its aftermath. The Church and the State, although often having conflicting goals and agendas, walked hand-in-hand throughout the entire colonial period, with ‘imperialism of the spirit’ being inconceivable without the groundwork of Catholic missionaries. Exploring the major domains that determined the course of church-state relations in the colonies, the authors analyse relations between the Holy See and the colonial powers, and between national Catholic authorities and secular authorities, as well as the international order and socio-political developments in the metropoles. They argue that interactions between state and church in Africa’s European colonies were contingent upon the complex dynamics of interests that both secular and ecclesiastical entities endeavoured to preserve or promote. With a particular focus on the Belgian and Portuguese colonies in Africa, this book provides useful reading for scholars of European imperial history and ecclesiastical history.
Book Synopsis A Missional Study of the United Methodist Church and the Education System of Mozambique (1929-1992) by : Isaias Filipe Machegane Face
Download or read book A Missional Study of the United Methodist Church and the Education System of Mozambique (1929-1992) written by Isaias Filipe Machegane Face and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present dissertation is a missionary study of the United Methodist Church and the education system of Mozambique (1929-1992). It arises from an exploration of literature relating to the mission of Protestant churches in the development of education; first at a time when education for indigenous populations in Mozambique was restricted to areas where there were official schools run by the Catholic Church where the end product of the educational system was not to train professionals but to educate the Mozambican people to be obedient to the colonial authorities. The focus period is from 1929 to 1974 when education reinforced the oppressive ideology. At this time the Protestant churches were firm in their promotion of an education that defended Mozambicans, an education that had the purpose of raising the conscience of the town, the nationalist and revolutionary spirit of Mozambicans. This had implications that culminated in the persecution of the Protestant churches that even before this period were considered to be harmful sects within the colonial system as well as the mission of the Catholic Church. The study affirms the mission of the United Methodist Church in promoting education even in the most difficult situation in the southern region of the country which was the political bastion of the colonial system. In the province of Inhambane under an evangelisation permit, the United Methodist Church adopted a strategy to educate the natives using huts as places for clandestine educational development. The church with this noble attitude was doing its best in persuading the colonial authorities which culminated in authorising the United Methodist Church to open educational establishments from pre-primary to three elementary classes, which once again was indicative of the United Methodist Church's dynamism in the formation of Mozambicans in many areas of knowledge. The United Methodist Church through its teaching awakened the nationalist and revolutionary spirit of the youth. In the patrol groups the young people were inspired by the freedom and the awakening of the conscience of Mozambicans. The United Methodist Church facilitated young people to join the liberation movement that had been formed as "FRELIMO" in Tanzania. The second phase of the study discusses educational policies in the postindependence period from 1975 to 1992. During this stage we saw that the churches were forbidden from carrying out any activity in the productive units, that is, in the communal villages under the pretext that they were aligned with the colonial system and the state did not want interference of religion in the affairs of the state. We see that the nation had nationalised the key sectors of education and health. All infrastructures of the church in the areas of education and health were nationalised and, with the nationalisation, the church could not continue to manage the education and health sector. The implication of this led to the loss of educational centres that are still in the hands of the state

Download or read book An Unfulfilled Promise written by Michael Cross and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2011 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study brings to light the complexities and intricacies of transforming schools in the context of two conflicting and contradictory processes of transition: the transition from the colonial system of government to a totalitarian and centralised system rooted in a Socialist discourse; and the departure from a failed Socialist project en route to an unknown future dictated by a neo-liberal discourse, liberal democracy and free-market economy. It will be of interest to those concerned with the question of education reform in developing countries, particularly students, teachers and researchers. The study covers an important gap in Southern African studies in addressing the question of school reform under conditions of conflict and emergency.

Book Synopsis Missionary Education by : Kim Christiaens
Download or read book Missionary Education written by Kim Christiaens and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Missionaries have been subject to academic and societal debate. Some scholars highlight their contribution to the spread of modernity and development among local societies, whereas others question their motives and emphasise their inseparable connection with colonialism. In this volume, fifteen authors – from both Europe and the Global South – address these often polemical positions by focusing on education, one of the most prominent fields in which missionaries have been active. They elaborate on Protestantism as well as Catholicism, work with cases from the 18th to the 21st century, and cover different colonial empires in Asia and Africa. The volume introduces new angles, such as gender, the agency of the local population, and the perspective of the child.
Book Synopsis On Missionary Roads by : Jozef Tomko
Download or read book On Missionary Roads written by Jozef Tomko and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Botswana to Thailand, from Peru to Bosnia, the missionary work of the Catholic Church stretches from pole to pole, encompassing every part of the globe. Jozef Cardinal Tomko, the Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples from 1985 to 2001 under the late Pope John Paul II, shares his account of the many missionary journeys he made around the world. Often accompanying the Pope, Cardinal Tomko saw firsthand how the Church is dealing with the particular challenges of various cultures around the world. He gives witness to the flowering of faith as well as the hardships that many Catholics face in other countries. The encyclopedic knowledge of countries and peoples that the Cardinal possesses will enrich the reader's understanding of the world today, and show that the Roman Catholic Church is truly "one, holy, catholic, and apostolic." "Cardinal Tomko has given us a gift in this book that can help us appreciate the Church's response today to the mission given her by Christ two thousand years ago. He deserves our gratitude too for what he has done for the missionary well being of the Church over the years that he was Prefect of the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples. This book is an invitation to share in his generous missionary spirit and, like him, to do great things for the Lord." -Francis Cardinal George, OMI, Archbishop of Chicago Lavishly Illustrated with color photographs
Book Synopsis Toward an African Church in Mozambique by : P. Spencer
Download or read book Toward an African Church in Mozambique written by P. Spencer and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2013-07-26 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature about Christianity in Africa disproportionately directs attention to the important work of Western missionaries, but to a great extent Africans were the agents of their own conversion. This is true of the key figure in this book, Kamba Simango. Encouraged from a distance by an American Congregationalist missionary, Fred R. Bunker, who shared his commitment to an African-led work, Simango, Tapera Nkomo and others struggled against difficult odds in the Mozambique Company region of Manica and Sofala in Central Mozambique. This study reveals the humanity of its characters as well as their deep devotion to their task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theological education is at a global crossroads. Although many traditional programmes struggle to maintain student enrolment, today’s environment gives exciting opportunities to serve the global church in ways that are multi-level, accessible, and educationally effective. TEE for the 21st Century utilizes missiological, educational, and sociological perspectives to explore theological education by extension (TEE) as a powerful contemporary tool for equipping the global church for its global mission. Multi-authored by a global team of discipline experts, brought together by the Increase Association, this book speaks to the real-life training needs of today’s church. Addressed to leaders, teachers, and practitioners, it offers a robust framework for critically evaluating the impact of TEE on the formation of whole-life disciples in a wide variety of contexts and locations. With a proven track record across Asia, Latin America, and Africa, TEE has a role to play in the future of the church, empowering every member to fulfil their God-given calling to ministry and mission.

Download or read book Patriarchal Lineages in 21st-Century Christian Courtship written by Elizabeth L. Shively and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-10 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing from a study of courtship media and ethnographic work at purity retreats and home-school conventions across the Midwest, this is the first inquiry into modern Christian courtship, an alternative to dating that asks young people to avoid both romance and sex until they are ready to be married. Bridging sociological and historical studies of American Christianity with youth and girlhood studies literatures, Elizabeth Shively finds that the courtship system is designed to shore up the patriarchal nuclear family structure at the center of conservative Christianity and ensure predictability in the face of emerging adulthood: single young women work to embody ideals of “luminous femininity” and model themselves after archetypes such as the “Proverbs 31 woman,” the “stay-at-home-daughter,” and the “mission-minded girl,” and courting couples strive to “guard their hearts” against premature emotional intimacy. Nonetheless, participants report that courtship, like other relationships, inevitably carries an element of risk, and it ultimately fails to offer a substantial challenge to the to the sexist realities of youth dating culture.

Download or read book Missionary Education in Home and School written by Ralph E. Diffendorfer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Missionary Education in Home and School Some time ago the following letter was received from the director of an institute for the training of Sunday school teachers in one of our large cities: "You will note that the Training Institute is solely for the purpose of religious education. The question of arranging to have missionary instruction included another year in the curriculum is for the Board of Managers and the Teacher Training and Graded Work Committee to decide." In the mind of this Sunday school worker missionary education and religious education are thought of as two quite distinct processes. In general, this was the attitude of most religious workers ten years ago when the author began an investigation of the relation of missionary education to religious education, and especially its place in the home and the church school. This distinction between religious education and missionary education was so marked and so persistent as to make certain results inevitable. The mission boards recognized more and more that the maintenance of their work depended upon rearing a generation of Christian people in thorough sympathy with missionary work, and with full conviction that its expanding needs must be met thoroughly and efficiently.

Book Synopsis Basic Education Reform in Mozambique by : Manuel Zianja Guro
Download or read book Basic Education Reform in Mozambique written by Manuel Zianja Guro and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mozambique embarked on major curriculum reforms of basic education at the start of the 21st century. This study focuses on the implementation of these education policies at Marrere Teachers' Training College. It is guided by the following questions: How has Marrere Teachers' Training College as an institution responded to the new government initiatives? What has changed and what has remained the same at Marrere? Why? What are the perceptions, beliefs and attitudes of lecturers and administrators regarding the new policies? What teaching strategies and practices are used in classrooms? How do lecturers teach? How are students assessed? What are the educational challenges facing the College? How can its practices be improved? I have chosen a qualitative case study design in order to build a holistic picture of teaching and learning in a natural setting. Marrere College was chosen because it was among the first teacher training institutions to introduce the reforms and because a special programme, the Osuwela Project, introduced prior to the introduction of the new curriculum, included several of the reform's innovations. Marrere College has been experimenting with the implementation of curriculum change for longer than most of the other colleges in the country. Among the emerging findings is that lecturers have a superficial understanding of interdisciplinary pedagogies, especially in the social sciences, and few of them have applied these pedagogies in classrooms. On the other hand, the reforms seem to have had a deeper impact on their advocacy of learner-centred teaching strategies, although question-and-answer practices continue to be widely used. The College has also gone a long way in changing the organisation of subjects and in implementing new methods of assessment. While there has been in-service training of lecturers, there are inadequate resources and follow-up support by the Ministry of Education. The literature that informs this study is the scholarship on educational change, particularly the relationship between policy and practice. There are many international studies that have attempted to understand these problems over the last thirty years, but no such studies on teacher training in Mozambique. This study seeks to contribute to our understanding of the modalities of educational change in resource-poor contexts. It also hopes to make a contribution to the implementation of the basic education policies by the Mozambican Ministry of Education and to the practices of lecturers and administrators at Marrere and other colleges.
