Europe and Religion
Europe
If participation in church activities is critical for the strength or weakness of religion, there is no denying that Europe comes off poorly. According to American sociologists of religion the rise of religious pluralism in the USA was due to the strict separation between state and church; it compelled congregations and denominations to compete for believers. The European case is different. Here the diversity of religions existed long before the …
Consider that it is a Raid on the Path of God
The document found with three of the four cells responsible for the crimes of 9/11 is unique in providing specific information about how the Muslim suicide terrorists conceived of their action. The document shows that they found justification for violence by emulating the moment in early Islamic history when Muhammad cancelled contracts with non-Muslims and organized raids (ghazwa) against the Meccans in order to establish Islam as a political or…

Religious History,displaced by Modernity
Aujourd'hui, les etudes religieuses connaissent un regain d'interet. Parmi les nombreuses publications apparues recemment, l'A. attire l'attention sur le volume edite par M. C. Taylor en 1998 Critical Terms for religious Studies et sur l'ouvrage Guide to the Study of Religion. Il constate que dans ces deux travaux, les termes histoire et tradition sont absents. Apres avoir presente un debat se deroulant en 1910 parmi les sociologues (Weber, Simme…
Religions in the Disenchanted World
Envisioning Magic
This collection of twelve articles presents a selection of papers delivered in the course of a seminar 1994-95 and its concluding international symposium at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. The common theme is the interrelation between magic and religion, focussing particularly on the Mediterranean world in Antiquity - Egyptian, Graeco-Roman and Jewish beliefs and customs - but also treating the early modern period in Northern Europ…
Religion, Law and the Construction of Identities
This introduction sets the academic and historical context for the four articles that follow. It considers how the modern legal disestablishment of religion has changed both religion and law and the nature of the interaction between them. It further argues that there has been insufficient academic attention given to the effect of disestablishment on both religion and the discourse about religion in modern secular society
Secrecy and Concealment
This volume deals with secrecy and concealment in the history of mediterranean religions as pattern of social interaction. Secrecy is a powerful means in establishing identity and interaction as G. Simmel has demonstrated. Using his approach the scholars of this volume describe and explain the practical meaning of concealment in two different religious systems: in Egyptian and Greek polytheism and in Jewish, Christian, Gnostic and Shi'i monotheis…
