Abstract
In the anthropological study of religious phenomena in African urban spaces much emphasis is currently placed on the concept of (super-) diversity (see Burchardt 2016, 2018; Wilhelm-Solomon et al. 2016, see also Garbin & Strhan 2017). Consequently, through this concept attention is drawn to what Vertovec (2007) has termed the experience of urban spaces (such as London) in which people are exposed to, and required to negotiate, an unprecedented variety of identities, origins, classes, interests, and religious expressions, involving: replace this quote by the following: [...] differential immigration statuses and their concomitant entitlements and restrictions of rights, divergent labour market experiences, discrete gender and age profiles, patterns of spatial distribution, and mixed local area responses by service providers and residents. [...] The interplay of these factors is what is meant here, in summary fashion, by the notion of ‘super-diversity’. (Vertovec 2007: 1025)
