Recenzii
This book provides a wonderful addition to the growing field of urban religion, religion(s) in cities, and surely religion in the postmodern era.
A remarkably innovative theoretical intervention. This scintillating book goes beyond existing work in the burgeoning field of urban religion by focusing on religious pluralism in cities. Based on the recognition of cities' inherent pluralism, it explores how this pluralism has evolved historically, is reconfigured in our era of intensified mobility, and shapes religious life in major metropolitan centers across the world. The book magisterially unpacks new religious-secular cleavages and is highly recommended for students of social sciences, urbanism, and religion.
A timely and highly relevant book examining religious-secular dynamics in contemporary cities. By combining cutting-edge theoretical developments on space, power and religion, with rich empirical cases, the authors offer a comprehensive understanding of the nature and transformation of religious pluralism in urban contexts across the world. A must read for anyone interested in learning about the changing role of religion in times of pluralism.
Helmuth Berking, Silke Steets and Jochen Schwenk deserve kudos for publishing this wideranging, provocative and empirically engaging collection examining religious pluralism and urban life today. The contributions are diverse and smart, both in their theoretical orientations and in their approaches to different cities and religious communities. Anyone interested in a multitude of pressing contemporary sociological and political issues will find this book both intriguing and of great value.
