The Brahma Kumaris as a 'Reflexive Tradition': Responding to Late Modernity
ISBN: 9781138730380 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 146 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This title was first published in 2002. Drawing on primary research on the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University, a millenarian New Religious Movement of Indian origin, this book examines the status of tradition in the contemporary world through a critical engagement with the recent social theory of Anthony Giddens on the emergence of a post-traditional society.

ISBN: 9781907534089 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Theorising Religion: Classical and Contemporary Debates
ISBN: 9780754640684 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Religion is controversial and challenging. Whilst religious forces are powerful in numerous societies, they have little or no significance for wide swaths of public or private life in other places. The task of theoretical work in the sociology of religion is, therefore, to make sense of this apparently paradoxical situation in which religion is simultaneously significant and insignificant. The chapters of Part One consider the classical roots of ideas about religion that dominated sociological ways of thinking about it for most of the twentieth century. Each chapter offers sound reasons for...
