  Between mobility and sedentarity: Pentecostal and Evangelical communities in Belgium in a context of religious globalisation

  Both in Belgium and in Europe, debates about immigration are generally dominated by Islam which tends to overshadow the current religious pluralisation in our societies. However, since several decades multiple forms of religious recomposition have been taking place, in particular within the Christian field, where a new dynamic can be observed as a consequence of migration and missionary movements, such as Pentecostal and Evangelical groups. During this study day, on 14 November 2013, we aim to discuss the religious mutations that have occurred in Belgium during the last decades, through different forms of mobility: migration, intra-European mobility and the transformation of native Churches. In particular, we will examine how the tension between local community and globalisation, mobility and sedentarity, local belonging and transnational networks are brought about by these Churches.
