The first Russian translation of the Introduction to the Encyclopedia of African Religion, published in 2009 by a group of leading African-American scholars. It presents the key features of the so-called Afrocentric model of interpretation of traditional African religions and their role in religious history of Africa. Special emphasis is placed on the differences between African and Western religions and on the idea of religious unity of the African continent.
