Thisbook looks back to the period 1860 to 1950 in order to grasp how alternative visions of amityand co-existence were forged between people of faith,bothwithin and resistant to imperial contact zones. It arguesthat networks of faith andfriendshipplayed a vital role inforging new vocabularies ofcosmopolitanismthatpresagedthe post-imperial world of the1950s. In focussingon thediversecosmopolitanismsarticulated within liberaltransnational networks of faith it is not intended to reduce orignore the centrality of racisms, andespecially hegemonic whiteness, in underpinning the spaces andsubjectivitiesthatthese networksformed within and through. Rather,the book explores how new formsof cosmopolitanismcould be articulated despite the awkward complicities andliminalities inhabited byindividuals andcharacteristic ofcosmopolitan thought zones.
