Description

This edited volume establishes idology as a subfield of symbolic anthropology, bringing together ethnographic case studies of popular idolatry in Japan while providing a transcultural framework for anthropological investigations across different cultures and historical periods. The collection expands on Aoyagi Hiroshi's foundational work from the early 2000s, proposing an integrated paradigm that redirects recurring scholarly questions toward fundamental points of sociocultural inquiry. Contributions from ethnographic researchers explore how idol worship functions within diverse social contexts, offering fresh perspectives on material culture, belief systems, and cultural meaning-making. This Macmillan publication serves as an essential resource for anthropologists, cultural studies scholars, and students seeking to understand idolatry as a complex social phenomenon worthy of rigorous academic investigation.
