- This work is the result of 22 months of ethnographic fieldwork in one neighbourhood of Kitwe, Zambia. This fieldwork included 18 months of fieldwork in 2008-2009, and subsequent trips in 2013 and 2014 for follow-up research and interviews in the same community. Much of the source material, including audio recordings of interviews and religious events, is in the Bemba language, and has therefore involved considerable translation efforts. The resulting monograph, totalling 224 pages, represents nearly two years of research with secondary sources and concentrated writing during a Chancellor’s Fellowship at the University of Edinburgh between 2013 and 2015.

- Additional information
- Portions of chapter six adapted from Haynes 2013 (American Anthropologist 115(1): 85-95). The chapter has been expanded to include significant unpublished ethnography (pp. 110-112), a more robust engagement with the literature on Pentecostal gifts (pp. 114-116), and an expanded comparison with the South Asian dan (pp. 122-125). This expansion, together with substantial reframing of some of the overlapping material, point to the different objectives of the two pieces. While Haynes 2013 aimed to show that Pentecostalism was not just about the market, chapter six shows how Pentecostal relationships fit into an overarching social project. Haynes 2013 was submitted to REF2014.
