“…Hence, in addition to investigating African ideas about God or the positive convergence of African and Christian notions, I argued for the need for scholars to consider also the negative incorporation of the spiritual entities in African religious traditions into the image of the Christian devil as part and parcel of local appropriations. In this way, the "old" and forbidden, from which Christians were required to distance themselves, remained available, albeit in a new form (see also Droz 1997).…”

■ Abstract Taking as a point of departure Fernandez's survey (1978), this review seeks to show how research on African Independent Churches (AICs) has been reconfigured by new approaches to the anthropology of Christianity in Africa, in general, and the recent salient popularity of Pentecostal-Charismatic Churches (PCCs) in particular. If the adjectives "African" and "Independent" were once employed as markers of authentic, indigenous interpretations of Christianity, these terms proved to be increasingly problematic to capture the rise, spread, and phenomenal appeal of PCCs in Africa. Identifying three discursive frames-Christianity and "traditional religion," Africa and "the wider world," religion and politics-which organize(d) research on AICs and PCCs in the course of the past 25 years, this chapter critically reviews discussions about "Africanization," globalization and modernity, and the role of religion in the public sphere in postcolonial African societies.

“…but also of meaning. The practice of butinage may thus be interpreted as allowing Kenyans to accumulate religious resources that offer them certain securities in the face of the ever-changing field of religion-in which schisms, collapses, and fusions of religious movements are frequent, as are suspicions of abuse of power by religious dignitaries (Droz 1997;. Religious butinage, or multiple practices, allows for diverse ways of worship to be preserved in case one's primary, or initial, denomination descends into political or financial scandal, or an individual's religious identity transforms in light of lived experience such as geographic mobility.…”

Marie-Aude FouéréxiiIn view of such changes-be they expected or planned, but also hindered or even disordered-, it was imperative for a research centre based in Nairobi to document and analyse the last twenty years of Kenyan political, economic and social life, from 2000 to 2020, in a book accessible to the greatest number of people. Kenya in motion, which is published both online and in print and available in both French and English-thus making it possible to discuss with all our English-speaking colleagues and to enter in a dialogue with the recent and ambitious Oxford Handbook of Kenyan Politics edited by Nic Cheeseman, Karuti Kanyinga and Gabrielle Lynch (2020)-brings together the contributions of specialists from Kenya. Some contributions cover a broad spectrum (political economy, social history, development, decentralisation) while others address more specific themes (arts, school, religion, land, water, security, trade, etc.). Six short texts called "Focus" are added to the fourteen chapters that make up this volume. They enrich certain chapters with their close focus on banking, higher education, slavery, sacred forests, religious adherence and the globalised art scene. Together, these texts provide both a synthetic grasp and particular visions of Kenya in the first quarter of the twenty-first century.We wish to thank several institutions and individuals. First of all, our deepest gratitude goes to the colleagues who contributed to the bookdoctoral students, newly graduated doctors, and experienced researchersfor their sustained commitment to IFRA projects and for their unfailing patience. Secondly, this project would not have been possible without IFRA's financial and human resources support, nor without the OpenEdition Books platform, which hosts the publisher's brand "Africae" and its "Studies" collection in which this book is being published. Within IFRA, our special thanks go to Chloé Josse-Durand and Marion Asego, respectively for the proofreading of some texts and for the administrative and financial support. We are also very grateful to our colleague Claire Médard from IRD (French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development) for her involvement and rigorous peer reviewing. Our warmest thanks also go to Antoine Kauffer for his efficient editorial work, and to Bastien Miraucourt, in charge of editing at the CNRS based at the Les Afriques dans le monde (LA...

“…production de sens. La pratique du butinage religieux permet donc aux Kényans de disposer d'un ensemble de « ressources » religieuses qui leur offrent une certaine sécurité face à la scène fort changeante du champ religieux : les schismes, les disparitions ou les fusions de mouvements religieux sont fréquents, tout comme les suspicions d'abus de pouvoir des dignitaires religieux… ou politiques (Droz 1997 ;. Le butinage religieux -ou les participations multiples -permet de conserver diverses voies de repli au cas où la dénomination initiale, ou primaire, sombrerait dans les scandales politico-financiers ou lorsque l'identité religieuse de l'individu se transforme au gré des événements vécus : l'identité religieuse est bien en constante renégociation.…”
