The Bahá'í: The Religious Construction of a Global Identity

by Michael McMullen

Book Overview

The Bah ' Faith is one of the fastest growing, but least studied, of the world's religions. Adherents view themselves as united by a universal belief that transcends national boundaries. Michael McMullen examines how the Bah ' develop and maintain this global identity. Taking the Bah ' community in Atlanta, Georgia, as a case in point, his book is the first to comprehensively examine the tenets of this little-understood faith.
