Abstract:
This article traces the presence in the Arab world of international Christian student organizations like the World Student Christian Federation (WSCF) and its intercollegiate branches of the YMCA and YWCA associated with the Protestant missionary movement in nineteenth-century Beirut. There, an American-affiliated branch of the YMCA emerged at Syrian Protestant College in the 1890s, and the Christian women's student movement formed in the early twentieth century after a visit from WSCF secretaries John Mott and Ruth Rouse. As such, student movements took on lives of their own, and they developed in directions that Western missionary leaders never anticipated. By attending to the ways in which the WSCF and YMCA/YWCA drew Arabs into the global ecumenical movement, this study examines the shifting aims of Christian student associations in twentieth-century Syria and Lebanon, from missionary-supported notions of evangelical revival to ecumenical renewal and interreligious movements for national reform.

Abstract:
AbstractOn Monday, 9 December 1935, the morning stillness in the frozen fields northwest of Beiping (Beijing) was broken by the sounds of singing and chanting. Several hundred Chinese students from Yenching (Yanjing) and Tsinghua (Qinghua) Universities, many of them members of the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) and the Young Women's Christian Association (YWCA), were marching into Beiping to express their outrage over the pending dismemberment of northeast China by the Japanese Army. Although the police forestalled the march by closing the city gates, several hundred other students from schools inside the city wall publicly vented their dissatisfaction with their government's failure to oppose Japanese imperialism. The “December Ninth Movement” (Yierjiu yundong) had begun. The patriotism of the students would eventually influence others in Chinese society, convincing them that national oblivion was near, and China would find the collective will to resist Japan for the next ten years.

Abstract:
The collapse of the British Student Christian Movement in the long 1960s is conventionally ascribed to its mimicking of student radicalism at a time of increasing secularisation. Yet analysis of the SCM's rhetoric demonstrates that in the early 1960s the movement imagined a religious crisis when student Christianity was still strong. By embracing a theological vision of ‘secularisation’, which demanded the deliberate transposition of Christian eschatologies into secular form, the SCM embarked on an early, original and influential journey into political radicalism. In this way, the SCM made a significant contribution to British student radicalism in the late 1960s.

Abstract:
Abstract Historians have documented the interlocking nature of student culture and religious life in nineteenth-century higher education; in contrast, after World War I religion has generally been ignored, or portrayed as disappearing from the academy and broader life. An investigation of the Student Christian Movement, however, suggests that by combining liberal theology with left-wing politics it became an influential religious force on campus well into the twentieth century. Reflecting a fairly homogeneous student population, supported by faculty and the administration, and articulating the temper of the times, the SCM served as the public voice of religion on campus. Only in the 1950s, as new social phenomena emerged, such as divisions among Protestants, the rise of agnosticism, and the creation of secular political organisations, did the SCM begin to lose its cultural authority on campus.

Abstract:
This article looks at the connection between a political movement and the evolution of Christian consciousness. It seeks to answer a series of questions not often asked, in hopes of demonstrating that these questions deserve more attention than they have generated in the past. Historians and mission scholars rightly expend a good deal of effort studying the transition in mission-established churches from European to indigenous control. Missions did more than establish churches, however. They established local Christian cultures. Yet while there is some understanding of what indigenous peoples sought to do when they assumed direction of churches founded by missionaries, there is very little idea of what indigenous peoples have sought to do when they take over local Christian cultures. But, if it is the case that, as Lamin Sanneh has argued, Christianity “stimulated the vernacular,” then the local Christian cultures built upon the vernacular, perhaps more so than the churches missions founded, are the true legacy of the missionary enterprise.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a study of a Christian movement among the Igbo people of Eastern Nigeria from its origins in the Civil War Revival (1967-73) to the present. It argues that the success of the revival depended upon a balance between supply and demand. Colonial legacies, Western missionary endeavours, decolonisation, and civil war not only created new religious demands, they contributed to the formation of a missionary fellowship, able to exploit the disorder of Igbo society and the failure of existing religious options to fulfil traditional aspirations. The thesis shows that during its formative period the revival’s Pentecostal progeny also benefited from this missionary impulse, and the flexibility of Pentecostal spirituality, which enabled it to adapt to meet consumer demands. It examines the way the movement has evolved since the 1970s, and argues that the decline of its missionary impulse, combined with a paradigm shift from holiness to prosperity teaching, and a propensity to schism, have imposed limitations on its potential as an agent of transformation. Finally, it shows that during the 1990s, a further shift has occurred towards a theology of socio-political engagement, and examines the implications of this for the movement’s identity and influence in a pluralistic society.

This is a study of the National Catholic Federation of Students (NCFS), an organisation that sought to bring together Catholic students on South African university campuses, examining specifically NCFS' political ideas and activities from 1960 to 1987. The underlying supposition of this thesis is that church history ought to be an integral part of the discipline of history, and that there is a need to write church history from "below" from the perspectives of the "people's church", the church that comprises the religious experience of the majority of its members rather than its hierarchy.

Abstract:
Frontier Internship in Mission (FIM) was an experimental mission project conceived of and run by Presbyterian Student World Relations director Margaret Flory between 1961 and 1974. It was broadly ecumenical in concept and execution and closely tied to the World Student Christian Federation community. Recent college or seminary graduates were assigned to live and work with local people who were connected in some way to the global ecumenical network and who had invited them. They worked on projects mutually agreed upon, usually for two years. One hundred fourteen of the 140 Americans who originally participated and eight of the original 20 international participants were interviewed for this study. Their narratives about their life histories and experience during and after these international partnerships offer an intimate look at one group of largely mainline Protestant Americans born in the 1930s and 1940s, and the social and religious institutions that were their avenues to engagement with the wider world at a time of cataclysmic change. Over the thirteen years of FIM program operation considered here, conditions in the forty-eight different countries where Frontier Interns (FIs) served were transformed by movements for independence and by escalating covert and overt American intrusions. The core of this dissertation presents regionally-organized internship case studies highlighting the impact of those encounters on the FI’s Christian and American identities . It also analyzes the rejection of their witness when they returned home. Moving forward with their lives, Frontier Interns reaffirmed their commitment to “right relations” of mutual respect across difference and most often gravitated to social roles as bridge-builders and interpreters, domestically and internationally. The strong internal opposition to global ecumenism that had developed in some mainline Protestant churches changed the relationship of many FIs to those churches. It is argued here that the Frontier Interns’ experience highlights a societal shift from a moral order based on covenant or social contract to one that privileged the unrestrained exercise of power and interests. A covenantal commitment to mutual global partnerships is central to who the FIs are, their internships, and what they did with their lives subsequently.

This dissertation has examined the University Christian Movement (UCM) over its turbulent five year history from 1967 to 1972 in terms of the original hopes of the sponsoring ecumenical denominations. Contextual factors within the socio-political arena of South Africa as well as broader youth cultural influences are shown to have had a decisive influence. These factors help to explain the negative reaction from the founding churches. While this is not a thesis on Black Consciousness, nevertheless the contribution of the UCM to the rise of Black Consciousness and Black Theology is evaluated. UCM is shown to be a movement well ahead of its time as a forerunner in South Africa of Black Theology, contextual theology, feminism, modem liturgical styles, and intercommunion. As such it was held in suspicion. It suffered repressive action from the government and alienation from the churches. Constant cross referencing to other organisations such as the World Student Christian Federation, the National Union of South African Students, the South African Council of Churches, the Christian Institute, and the Sllldents Christian Association, helps to locate the UCM within the flow of contemporary history. The concluding evaluation differs markedly from the report of the Schlebusch Commission by making both critical and positive judgement from the perspective of the UCM as an ecumenical mission to students.

Abstract:
This study focused on the ‘silence of the prophets’ in the post-apartheid era. It sought to understand why the prophets, who spoke out so vehemently against the injustices of apartheid, did not speak out against the injustices of the government after 1994 even when it became blatantly apparent that corruption was beginning to unfold on various levels, especially with the introduction of the so-called Arms Deal. Accordingly, the study singles out Drs Allan Boesak and Frank Chikane who were among the fiercest opponents of the apartheid regime before 1994. The study traced the impact of the ideological forces that influenced Boesak and Chikane’s ideological thinking from the early Slave Religion, Black Theology in the USA and Liberation Theology in Latin America. Black Theology and Black Consciousness first made their appearance in South Africa in the 1970s, with Boesak and Chikane, among others, as early advocates of these movements. In 1983, Boesak and Chikane took part in the launch of the United Democratic Front (UDF) in Mitchells Plain, Cape Town. This movement became the voice of the voiceless in an era when the members of the African National Congress (ANC) and Pan African Congress (PAC) had been sent into exile. It also signalled a more inclusive and reconciliatory shift in Boesak and Chikane’s Ideological thinking. Whereas Black Consciousness sought to exclude white people from participating in the struggle for liberation, the UDF united all under one banner without consideration for colour, race, religion or creed. After the advent of liberation in South Africa in 1994, it became increasingly obvious that corruption was infiltrating many levels of the new government. But the prophets were silent. Why were they silent? The study presents an analysis of the possible reasons for this silence based on interviews with Boesak and Chikane as role players and draws conclusions based on their writings both before and after 1994. Overall, the study concluded that they were silent because they had become part of the new political structures that had taken over power. To sum up, the study demonstrates the irony of prophetic oscillation and concludes that no prophet is a prophet for all times. Thus, as a new democracy unfolds in South Africa, the situation demands new prophets with a new message.

Abstract:
The first part of this chapter examines Catholic missions among the Maasai, with particular attention given to the perennial issues raised by Vincent Donovan in his book Christianity Rediscovered. After a cursory examination of the role of missionary education as a vehicle of conversion, the discussion returns to the Maasai and, in particular, to the attraction of the Christian message to women. The second part of the chapter revisits West Africa with a brief glimpse of the Aladura movement in Yorubaland (Nigeria) before taking up Nigeria’s Pentecostal explosion in the mid-1970s. Expressed in multitudinous forms and organizations, the emergence of Spirit-centered movements took place within a local context of socioeconomic and political upheaval and a larger global context of exposure to modernizing influences, particularly those emanating from North American Pentecostalism. In addition to attracting young adults, women find that Pentecostalism is a boon to stable marriages and family life.

Abstract:
This chapter follow’s Norman Anderson’s career as a missionary with the Egypt General Mission in Egypt from 1932 to 1939. It traces the influence of prominent missionary thinkers, Egyptian Christians and Islamic intellectuals on Anderson’s missionary strategy and his growing interest in Islamic reform. Anderson’s missionary strategy coalesced around evangelistic outreach to Egyptian students at Cairo University. In order to reach these students he attended classes in law, constructed a modern purpose-built house to host gathering near campus and wrote an apologetic for the Christian faith in Arabic aimed at sceptics and Muslims. Anderson also became fascinated with the movement to reform Egyptian law and began to study the Arabic writings of the leading teachers in Islamic law at the University.

Joe Pfister grew up in Northern California in the 1940s and 1950s. He attended the University of California, Berkeley; joined the Student Christian Movement; and studied psychology. Thinking he would eventually pursue a career in counseling, perhaps with a spiritual component to it, he enrolled at Union Theological Seminary in 1964. Once there, he found he was less interested in psychology than in the urban ministry work that was taking place in nearby Harlem....

Abstract:
This chapter charts the involvement of centre-right students in some of the key moments and debates around student activism from the mid-1960s until the climactic years of the protest movement in 1967/68. It traces their early mobilization in the middle of the decade, shows how they rallied increasingly from 1967 onward to formulate a response to the upsurge in left-wing protest activity, and examines their theoretical efforts and relationship with activists of the Left. The final section introduces a group of Christian Democratic ‘renegades’ whose close engagement with the Left made them rethink their politics in fundamental ways. Looking at some of the key themes and events of these years from the perspective of the centre-right, the chapter demonstrates that centre-right students were there throughout 1968, and not just as passive observers. They were an important part of this political moment and engaged with and participated in the student movement in manifold ways. Writing them back into the history of 1968 reveals that political activism in these years was a much broader, more versatile, and, ultimately, more consequential phenomenon than the traditionally narrower focus on left-wing radicals in much of the literature allows.

Abstract:
Few biologists today have likely heard of cell biologist Alex Novikoff (1913–1987) (Figure 3.1). But the fruits of his science are well known. He helped discover the cell organelle called the lysosome. In 1955 he visualized what Christian de Duve had characterized only by chemical means. He documented the first known enzyme of the Golgi body, another cell organelle. He developed ways to stain lysosomes and peroxisomes (also cell organelles) that were critical to identifying them and studying them with the electron microscope. Novikoff also was targeted by the anti-Communist movement in the mid-twentieth century. In 1953 he was dismissed from the University of Vermont for declining to answer questions before a congressional committee. In 1974 he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences. His FBI file then contained 822 pages. Novikoff ’s fascinating case raises important issues about how science and political ideology relate. In 1982 the American Society for Cell Biology honored Novikoff with its prestigious E. B. Wilson Award for his foundational contributions to the emerging field. Yet much earlier, in the late 1930s, he was indeed a member of the Communist Party. For him, it expressed a quest for social justice and an appreciation of Karl Marx’s scientific posture toward society. While he researched experimental embryology as a PhD student at Columbia University, he also helped write and distribute the Communist newsletter at Brooklyn College, where he taught. When the college tried to disrupt the teachers’ union, Novikoff was secretly listed as a suspected Communist. When World War II began, Novikoff wanted to serve the nation. He applied for a medical commission in the military. He was twice denied, however, owing to doubts about his loyalty. He later consulted for the army on two biological films—until it found his vague Communist record. (One wonders: Did someone imagine that he could link enzymes and carbohydrate metabolism to the violent overthrow of the US government?) Later, Novikoff lost his faculty position—not for any political activity but for invoking the Fifth Amendment in anti-Communist hearings, and despite recommendations from fellow faculty describing his “tireless” research efforts.

"{96} Leipzig University, where his friends the art historians Alfred Doren and Walter Gotz were working, in March 1917. But this project came, to nothing for two reasons: Doren and Gotz had to join up and in the winter of 1917 lec­ tures had to be cancelled due to the acute fuel shortage. Warburg, who had started researching the topic, contacted Professor Franz Boll, the distin-guised academic and author of books on belief in the stars, and requested information on constellations and dates of eclipses of the sun as he was trying to provide the evidence for his theory that illustrations accompanying the signs of the zodiac went back to a family of twelve gods in Western Asia.10 Warburg wanted to show an instance of survival of classical astrology among Luther’s contemporaries which went so far as to change Luther’s date of birth from 10th November 1483 to 22nd October 1484— an example of ret­ rospective prophecy and the power of belief in stars. After his lecture in Leipzig was cancelled, Warburg decided to present his research in Hamburg and his many letters to friends and colleagues give us an insight into his working method, his ideas, concerns, convictions. Through the correspondence in preparation for his lecture, we know whom he contacted and trusted. Thus, a study of these letters, which furnishes us with the background to and genesis of the wartime lectures in Hamburg and Berlin, also contributes to an understanding of Warburg’s book on Luther published three years later. We first read of Warburg’s research into the topic when he thanked Carl F. Meinhof of the Kolonialinstitut in Hamburg for his observation, that Luther’s beliefs should be positioned halfway between practical magic and abstract symbolism.11 Warburg announced to Boll that he has found “some­ thing interesting” in connection with his Luther research;12 and with Hermann Joachim of the Hamburg State Archive, to whom he wrote that he used the word “ Reformation” in a context wider than just the Lutheran movement, because he understood by that word a transformation having originated from both Christian and non-Christian churches.13 In a letter to Ernst Schwedeler-Meyer, his friend from student days in Strasbourg and director of the Arts and Crafts Museum in Liberec (Reichenberg), Warburg explained that he was researching the relationship between Lutherism and classical cosmological beliefs,14 and he approached Paul Flemming in Pforta with detailed questions on Johann Lichtenberger, Melanchthon and Luther, and the relationship between German Reformation theology and supersti-."
