This article deals with the transnational construction of imaginaries of the Muslim Orient in Arabic-speaking evangelical movements between Europe, the United States and the Middle East by religious actors who present themselves as mediators in contemporary globalization. These Arabic-speaking Evangelical Christians try to construct a place for themselves as cultural brokers in the intensification and densification of global interactions, through which the symbolic boundaries, between a world thought of as “Western,” both Christian and secular, and a world thought of as “Oriental” and “Arab-Muslim,” are constituted and reinforced.
