Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
This chapter discusses recent encounters of animist reindeer herders with Christian missionization and conversion in the region with an ethnographic focus on Nenets people living along the coast of the Arctic Ocean on the border of Europe and Asia. Examining the past and present transformations in language and faith brought by Evangelical and Pentecostal missionaries, this chapter looks at how ideas and ideologies about language, personhood, and relationship to the state are all shifting among Nenets who convert to these forms of Christianity.
