Vie quotidienne, production de valeurs et religion

In what way does the sociology of everyday life constitute a specific approach which is particularly suitable for the analysis of religion ? The analysis of everyday life presupposes that we take as our point of departure the individual, reactivy to events against the background of the spaces-times which are familiar to him. The various individual reactions help to modify the socio- emotional situations from which values become stabilized and are generated. Thus while on the descriptive plane, the analysis of everyday life presupposes micro-observation it nevertheless leads on the interpretative plane to the bringing out of an overall social deter minant. This determinant is relatively important for understanding religious phenomena... In this text, the term religion is understood as an everyday life term, which makes it possible to characterize a response to a per manent social problem: the dialectic of sense and nonsense
