New York Glory – Religions in the City: Religion, Race, and Ethnicity

Autor Tony Carnes, Anna Karpathakis
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2000
Is New York a post-secular city? Massive immigration and cultural changes have created an increasingly complex social landscape in which religious life plays a dynamic role. Yet the magnitude of religion's impact on New York's social life has gone unacknowledged. New York Glory gathers together for the first time the best research on religion in contemporary New York City. It includes contributors from every major research project on religion in New York to provide a comprehensive look at the current state of religion in the city. Moving beyond broad surveys into specific case studies of communities and institutions, it provides a window onto the diversity of religious life in New York. From Italian Catholics, Mormons, Muslims, and Russian Jews to Zen Buddhists, Rastafarians, and Pentecostal Latinas, New York Glory both captures the richness of religious life in New York City and provides an important foundation for our understanding of the current and future shape of religion in America.

Sociology of Religion"In New York Glory the usually peripheral becomes foreground, and the core background." Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion"The editors are to be encouraged for gathering together original material from some of the most current research on religions in the city." American Jewish History"New York Glory is a very welcome attempt to describe and to some extent explain and understand the multifaceted and dynamic religious and spiritual landscape of New York City. It is a rich source book of the religious demography of NYC." Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies "The chief virtue of this collection lies in the fact that it is the first of its kind, the first to explore the diverse religious life of New York City at the turn of the twenty-first century."
