What would anthropology, enriched by theoretical resources drawn from the field of Christian theology, but remaining deeply engaged with the ethnography of everyday lived Christianities, look like? Is there a chance to develop a conversation between anthropology and theology that would be ‘transformative’ for both disciplines? These are the questions Joel Robbins sets out to examine in his book Theology and the Anthropology of Christian Life.
