Religion, Identity and Change

Perspectives on Global Transformations
Herausgeber: Coleman, Simon; Collins, Peter

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses the need for a reassessment of issues relating to identity in the light of current transformations in society as a whole and religion in particular. Drawing together case-studies from many different expressions of faith and belief, leading scholars ask how contemporary religions or spiritualities respond to the challenge of forming individual and collective identities in a nation context.
