Methodological Approaches to Societies in Transformation
Making Sense of Change
In this introductory chapter the authors discuss ways of studying change that go beyond a chronology of events and sweeping laws of evolution and that take into account the ways in which people live through, experience, desire, create, and challenge change. How can we‚ at the same time‚ gain a longue durée perspective on societal transformations and give a truthful account of the ways our different interlocutors describe, name, and understand the…
Methodological Approaches to Societies in Transformation

Dies führt zur Zunahme religiöser Alternativen und fördert ihre wachsende Diffusion und Relevanz für das rel…
Neue Rituale für alle Lebenslagen Beobachtungen zur Popularisierung des Ritualdiskurses
Das Weltparlament der Religionen von 1893
Modern slogans such as "Globalization", "Clash of cultures" or "Religious pluralism" are closely linked to the history of intercultural and interreligious encounters over previous centuries. With its account of the history and course of the World's Parliament of Religions, the first interreligious conference at international level, held in Chicago in 1893, the study shows how different religions and cultures can benefit from engaging with each ot…
