Abstract

This chapter explores the multi-layered relationship between religion, society, and the state in Chad by investigating the role of religion and religious actors in the current historical moment, characterized by social cleavages, persistent poverty and insecurity for a large part of the Chadian population, and negotiations over Chad's political future.
