Postmodernity, sociology and religion

Kieran Flanagan, Peter C. Jupp (eds)

Palgrave Macmillan - Basingstoke

1999

This topical collection of eleven commissioned essays by well-established contributors from sociology, religious studies and theology, is one of the first treatments of the relationship between postmodernity and religion from a sociological perspective. The essays cover a diversity of interests, but treat postmodernity in terms of its implications for the self, the New Age and theology, particularly Catholicism and Judaism.
