Shaped and forged over the course of the twentieth century, it has reflected the interests and political situation of the world at the time. As the twenty-first century unfolds, it is undergoing a major transition along with religion itself. This volume showcases new work and new approaches to religion which work across boundaries of religious tradition, academic discipline and region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe influence of globalizing processes has been evident in social and cultural networking by way of new media like the internet, in the extensive power of global capitalism and in the increasing influence of international bodies and legal instruments. Religion has been changing and adapting too. This handbook offers fresh insights on the dynamic reality of religion in global societies today by underscoring transformations in eight key areas: Market and Branding; Contemporary Ethics and Virtues; Intimate Identities; Transnational Movements; Diasporic Communities; Responses to Diversity; National Tensions; and Reflections on 'Religion'. These themes demonstrate the handbook's new topics and approaches that move beyond existing agendas. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBringing together scholars of all ages and stages of career from around the world, the handbook showcases the dynamism of religion in global societies. It is an accessible introduction to new ways of approaching the study of religion practically, theoretically and geographically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJayeel Cornelio\u003c\/strong\u003e is Associate Professor and the Director of the Development Studies Program at the Ateneo de Manila University, Philippines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrançois Gauthier is Professor of Religious Studies at the Social Sciences Department of the Université de Fribourg, Switzerland. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuomas Martikainen is the Director of the Migration Institute of Finland, Finland. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLinda Woodhead is Distinguished Professor of Religion and Society at Lancaster University, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 522\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.05 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51783156826400,"sku":"9780367616397","price":106.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/88fc80ab158516544b952b55a566343d.webp?v=1780581599","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/routledge-international-handbook-of-religion-in-global-society-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
