Abstract

In this episode of The Know Show Podcast, we meet Marloes Janson, a Professor of West African Anthropology in the Department of Anthropology and Sociology, and Associate Director of Research at SOAS University of London. Marloes tells us how her interest in anthropology and religion developed, discussing her truly fascinating work that looks at Chrislam in Lagos, Nigeria.
