520 $a This dissertation focuses on the Zomi revival movement of the 1970s from social and cultural perspectives. The life and culture of the Zomi has been shaped by contact with other cultures through the centuries. This change has been intensified since the 1970s, when the revival movement was experienced and impacted their life in various ways.
520 $a This study has investigated the issues and factors in the revival movement, through historical, phenomenological, anthropological, and theological disciplines. This research is based on data collected largely through library and archival research, augmented by interviews and questionnaires, and by correspondence in the form of letters and emails. My personal experience has contributed significant information to the investigation.
520 $a This study examines social and cultural factors that shaped the life and culture of the Zomi through the known history as a result of contacts with other cultures, including western, Asian and related ethnic cultures. Encounter with the revival shaped the life of the Zomi in nationalism, theological concepts, worldview, church music, and worship. Through this encounter, some of the cultural practices that had been hidden by western Christian influence were rediscovered. It has been argued that opposition to the revival was due to western influence on Christianity and refusal of change in the church, overlooking the social and cultural background of the people concerned.
520 $a This study concludes by arguing that the revival movement became an agent of change in the social, religious and cultural life of the Zomi. Some of the cultural values have been recontextualized in the form of house and village cleansing.
