Introduction

The Anglican Communion is the third largest Christian denomination and claims a membership of some 80 million members in about 164 countries. Given that there are only around two hundred countries in the world, this makes the churches of the Anglican Communion the most geographically widespread denomination after Roman Catholicism. The Introduction provides an outline of the structure of the volume. The chapters embrace a wide range of academic disciplines: some are theological; some are historical; some discuss demography and geography; and still others different aspects of culture and ethics. What unites them is that they all address what is effectively a new inter-disciplinary subject which we have termed ‘Anglican Studies’.
