Journal Article
Polyontologism: When “Syncretism” Does Not Suffice
2019
Overview
This article challenges the common assumption that the framework of “syncretism” (in terms of hybridity or blending) neatly characterizes pluralist religious practices. My case study from coastal Kenya suggests that in some communities, religious pluralism may preserve discontinuity between loci of religious power, a model I call “polyontologism.”
