Title
Jesus Loves Japan: Return Migration and Global Pentecostalism in a Brazilian Diaspora,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
After the introduction of the "longterm resident" visa, the massmigration of Nikkeis (Japanese Brazilians) has led to roughly 190,000 Brazilian nationals living in Japan. While the ancestrybased visa confers Nikkeis' right to settlement virtually as a right of blood, their ethnic ambiguity and workingclass profile often prevent them from feeling at home in their supposed ethnic homeland. In response, many have converted to Pentecostalism, reflecting the explosive trend across Latin America since the 1970s. Jesus Loves Japan offers a rare window into lives at the crossroads of return migration and global Pentecostalism. Suma Ikeuchi argues that charismatic Christianity appeals to Nikkei migrants as a "third culture"one that transcends ethnonational boundaries and offers a way out of a reality marked by stagnant national indifference. Jesus Loves Japan insightfully describes the political process of homecoming through the lens of religion, and the ubiquitous figure of the migrant as the pilgrim of a transnational future.
