This volume reflects on the interface between religion and inequality, and how this impacts development in different African contexts. Some contributors undertake detailed analyses of how religion creates (and justifies) different forms of inequalities that hold back individuals, groups, communities and even the entire continent from flourishing, while others show how religion can also mitigate inequality in Africa.
Topics addressed include gender inequality, economic inequality, disability, ageism and religious homophobia. Specifically focusing on the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goal 10 to reduce inequality within and among countries, this book highlights the extent to which Africa’s “notoriously religious” identity needs to be taken into account in discourses on development.
