  • Australia’s Changing Religious Profile—Rising Nones and Pentecostals, Declining British Protestants in Superdiversity

    Open AccessG Bouma, Gary D Bouma et al.ARTICLEJournal for the Academic Study of…2017

    The 2016 Australian Census reveals continued change in Australia’s religious diversity. While reviewing some of the highlights of this development–the continuing increase in the ‘no religion’ category, the first ever decline in Catholic numbers, and the rise of Hindus and Sikhs–several religious groups, which are not usually combined in the census, actually when grouped together represent most of the Pentecostal and charismatic churches and form …

  • The role of demographic and socio-cultural factors in Australia’s successful multicultural society

    Open AccessG Bouma, Gary D BoumaARTICLEJournal of Sociology2016Citada por: 5Referências: 23

    Religious diversity and social cohesion have long been seen to be at odds with each other. Classical sociology, grounded in the Westphalian solution to religious conflict in Europe presumed that a single religion was necessary for social cohesion. The issue of religious diversity and social cohesion has come to the fore as once religiously monochrome societies have become diverse through migration and, to a lesser degree, conversion. While Europe…

  • Religion and Sex

    G Bouma, Gary D BoumaARTICLEJournal for the Academic Study of…2014

    The debate about same-sex marriage in Australia is used as a lens through which to examine the challenges to social policy debates produced by increases in religious diversity, on the one hand, and the re-entry of religious voices in the public sphere on the other. Moreover, it has now become necessary for non-religious so called secular voices, once considered to be the norm, to defend their positions. Australia’s provision of ‘civil celebrants’…

  • Using census data in the management of religious diversity

    G Bouma, Gary D Bouma et al.ARTICLEReligion2014Citada por: 4Referências: 15

    Mapping and measuring religious diversity has become critical to the management of interreligious relations in the 21st century.

  • Islamophobia as a constraint to world peace

    G Bouma, Gary D BoumaARTICLEIslam and Christian–Muslim…2011Citada por: 5

    One of the critical factors shaping any understanding of the reception of Islam and Muslims in the West is an overarching anti-Islam and anti-Muslim discourse. This article takes Islamophobia to refer to a discourse that reifies and essentializes negative images of Islam, Muslims and their cultures, resulting in unfounded fear of actual Muslims. This article briefly discusses this discourse and demonstrates its effects in the West and in particul…

  • Estimating the Extent of Religious and Spiritual Activity in Australia Using Time-Budget Data

    Open AccessG Bouma, Gary D Bouma et al.ARTICLEJournal for the Scientific Study…2003Citada por: 1Referências: 7

    The amount of religious and spiritual activity in a society is usually estimated by surveys, census data, participant records, and membership data. Most of these do not provide a comparison of religious with other activities and suffer from significant halo effects. Time-budget data provide the basis for estimating religious activity as a percentage of all time and enable comparisons with other similar activities. This analysis of time-budget dat…

  • Gender and Religious Settlement

    G Bouma, Gary D Bouma et al.ARTICLEJournal of Intercultural Studies2000Citada por: 5Referências: 2

    Religious settlement refers to the process whereby a religion moves from one place to another and becomes incorporated into the religious economy of the new place. In this process, both the migrating religion and the society in which it settles are changed. This process, described in detail by several studies, results in an increase in religious diversity necessitating new strategies to negotiate this diversity in everyday life. Using census data…
