Against the backdrop of the resurgence of religious forces in East and West that began in the late 20th century these collected essays reflect upon the role of religion in the transatlantic world. When one takes a closer look at the generally held opinion that the western societies have undergone and are continuing to undergo a more or less thorough process of secularization this notion appears less convincing - at least in view of the persistent vitality of religion in the United States. From this point of view, there is a transatlantic divide that separates the United States from Europe, and by all appearances Europe alone stands out as the only truly secular continent in the modern world. But this begs the question whether the obvious decline of the public role of the traditional church establishment signals in fact the emergence of a secular Euro culture. Rather, it has recently been argued, a metamorphosis of the religious and of religion is taking place in Europe: Europeans are in comparison to people in other parts of the world not less but differently religious. Written by highly renowned scholars the essays in this volume discuss the varieties of religious forms and communities of belief from a transatlantic vantage point. They approach the subject in an interdisciplinary and nuanced manner from diverse angels and perspectives. Naturally these presentations will not exhaust this highly complex topic. But they offer a fresh look at the interplay between spiritual and religious forces and public affairs in a modernized transatlantic West.

A reconsideration of secularization theory using, as its core study, the people of a rural island in Denmark. Buckser (sociology and anthropology, Purdue U.) combines historical research and field study to portray the people of Mors whose community went through a profound religious awakening in the 19th century that divided it into several intense Lutheran movements. The author finds remnants of that deep religious fervor in the contemporary lives of Mors' inhabitants, making him conclude that secularization theory is inadequate to an anthropological approach focused on religion's role in creating identity and community for its members.

Unique local transformations of the practice of established religions in Asia and the Pacific are juxtaposed with the emergence of new religious movements whose incidence is growing across the region. In Flows of Faith, the contributing authors take as their starting point questions of how religions manifest outside their cultural boundaries and provide the basis for new social identities, political movements and social transformations. With fresh insights into the globalization of beliefs, their local inflections, and their institutionalization, the authors explore how old and new religions work in different settings, and how their reception and membership challenge orthodox understandings of religion and culture. The chapters – set in Asia, the Pacific, Australia, and the US – illustrate the contrasts and commonalities of these belief systems, and their allegiances and networks in the region and beyond. They include new religious movements – Falun Gong, Brahma Kumaris, the Hare Krishna movement, based in East and South Asia with outreach posts in Australia and the U.S. – and established ‘old’ religions – Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam – that are revitalized and recreated in different settings and places. Flows of Faith describes the transnational reaches of faith. Religious practices and their local manifestations track the movement of peoples, through mission outreach, flight, migration, and pilgrimage. In each new setting, religions are shaped by and in turn shape political and cultural forces, proving that they are resilient and generative, originary and distinctive. The volume is a major contribution, providing readers with a fresh and creative approach into the living experience of religious communities in a contemporary globalised world.

Part of the series Key Concepts in Indigenous Studies, this book focuses on the concepts that recur in any discussion of nature, culture and society among the indigenous. The book, the first in a five-volume series, deals with the two crucial concepts of environment and belief systems of indigenous peoples from all the continents of the world. With contributions from renowned scholars, activists and experts from around the globe, it presents a salient picture of the environments of indigenous peoples and discusses the essential features of their belief systems. It explores indigenous perspectives related to religion, ritual and cultural practice, art and design, and natural resources, as well as climate change impacts among such communities in Latin and North America, Oceania (Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific Islands), India, Brazil, Southeast Asia and Africa. Bringing together academic insights and experiences from the ground, this unique book's wide coverage will serve as a comprehensive guide for students, teachers and scholars of indigenous studies. It will be essential reading for those in anthropology, social anthropology, sociology and social exclusion studies, religion and theology, and cultural studies, as well as activists working with indigenous communities.
