Description

Peter Beyer, a distinguished sociologist of religion, presents a comprehensive framework for understanding religion within contemporary global society by analysing it as a fundamental dimension of historical globalisation processes. This book introduces key theories of globalisation and demonstrates their practical application to world religions, revealing the contested nature of the category 'religion' itself-examining what it means, what it encompasses, and its implications in today's world. Through exceptional clarity and diverse, engaging examples spanning Islam and Hinduism to African traditional religions and new age spirituality, Beyer provides readers with essential insights into how religious traditions interact, adapt, and persist within interconnected global systems. The work bridges sociological theory and religious studies, making it invaluable for students, academics, and anyone seeking to understand the complex role of religion in shaping modern society.

Key Features

Religions in Global Society applies globalisation theories to analyse religious traditions across Islam, Hinduism, African religions, and new age spirituality in contemporary contexts.

Peter Beyer's sociological approach clarifies what 'religion' means as a category in today's interconnected world and its broader societal implications.

Routledge publication offers rigorous academic analysis written with exceptional clarity, making complex globalisation concepts accessible to readers at all levels.

The book uses diverse, lively examples to illustrate how religions interact within global society and adapt to modern pressures and opportunities.

This sociology of religion text provides essential frameworks for understanding religious identity, belief systems, and institutional changes in a globalised age.
