Recenzii
This book explores neoliberal culture and its impact on religious identities. The social scientific study of religion must adapt accordingly if we are to comprehend current trends. A series of innovative - and sometimes unexpected examples - brings the debate to life, not least its ethical implications. This is a book to ponder carefully.
Mathew Guest directs our attention to the fact that our era is traversed by market ideologies and imaginaries in the guise of neoliberalism and consumerism, and that this is crucial for understanding religion. Using a cultural approach that considers religion in wider society rather than looking at it in isolation, he perspicaciously analyses the way in which neoliberalism affects religion through discussions on marketization, populism, the rise of "post-truth" claims, securitization and the entrepreneurial self. It should be widely read.
