Peter Berger is a great resource on global Pentecostalism, especially in reference to modernity:
He's contributed to a book called Global Pentecostalism in the 21st Century (ISBN 0253010861) which may help.
He addresses this issue often in his blog (www.the-american-interest.com/byline/berger/).
There are several videos on You tube of discussions that he's given on the topic.
He is also the director of the Institute on Culture, Religion, and World Affairs at Boston University, who often conducts research on this topic. You might contact them to find out a bit more.
