Although students and scholars of social problems have often acknowledged the role of religion, no thorough examinations of the relation between the two have emerged. This volume fills this gap by providing a definitive work on the role of religion in assessing, constructing, and solving social problems. Contributors chart the relation between religion and social problems, exploring such case studies as the impact of religion on drugs and alcohol use among Muslims, the rising importance that religion is given in social policy, the role of the Orthodox and Catholic churches in tackling social problems in post-communist East Europe, and the contested role of religion in the national and international politics of contemporary Japan. Religion and Social Problems is a broad and path-breaking contribution to the fields of sociology of religion, sociology of social problems, and religious studies.

Religion lies near the heart of the classical sociological tradition, yet it no longer occupies the same place within the contemporary sociological enterprise. This relative absence has left sociology under-prepared for thinking about religion’s continuing importance in new issues, movements, and events in the twenty-first century. This book seeks to address this lacunae by offering a variety of theoretical perspectives on the study of religion that bridge the gap between mainstream concerns of sociologists and the sociology of religion. Following an assessment of the current state of the field, the authors develop an emerging critical perspective within the sociology of religion with particular focus on the importance of historical background. Re-assessing the themes of aesthetics, listening and different degrees of spiritual self-discipline, the authors draw on ethnographic studies of religious involvement in Norway and the UK. They highlight the importance of power in the sociology of religion with help from Pierre Bourdieu, Marx and Critical Discourse Analysis. This book points to emerging currents in the field and offers a productive and lively way forward, not just for sociological theory of religion, but for the sociology of religion more generally.

This book is one of the results of the V International Seminar on Mediatization and Social Processes, held in 2022, at UFSM. The e-book edition of the Debate Panels from the V Seminar is available not only at the collection of the project (https://www.midiaticom.org/e-books/) but also of FACOS UFSM (http://www.ufsm.br/editoras/facos/publicacoes/). The works from the WG unfolded in two bibliographic productions, available at the OJS platform, with ISBN: a) Expanded abstracts (142): https://midiaticom.org/anais/index.php/seminario-midiatizacao-resumos/issue/view/16; b) Full articles (33): https://www.midiaticom.org/seminario-midiatizacao/anais-de-artigos-do-v-seminario/. In five editions, these publications were accessed by 102 thousand researchers and users worldwide. In epistemological, methodological and empirical research terms, the V Seminar adds to the important collection for doctors’, masters’ and undergraduate’s research, besides serving as reference to the interlocutions of researchers involved in the research lineage in which it stands, according to what the metrics show: 166 listeners; 119 expositors in 12 working groups; 388 certificates emitted by UFSM/MIDIATICOM. We reiterate our acknowledgment to CAPES, FAPERGS, CNPq and STINT (Sweden) for the financial aid, essential to the viability of this proposal of conversation based on the theoretical and empirical research conducted by its participants. All of this would be impossible without the endorsement of POSCOM and UFSM, and the collective work of the Organizing Committee and Midiaticom. A hug of gratitude.

In theological discourse, argues Hugh Nicholson, the political goes "all the way down." One never reaches a bedrock level of politically neutral religious facts, because all theological discourse - even the most sublime, edifying, and "spiritual"--is shot through with polemical elements. Liberal theologies, from the Christian fulfillment theology of the nineteenth century to the pluralist theology of the twentieth, have assumed that religious writings attain spiritual truth and sublimity despite any polemical elements they might contain. Through his analysis and comparison of the Christian mystical theologian Meister Eckhart and his Hindu counterpart ÍaSkara, Nicholson arrives at a very different conclusion. Polemical elements may in fact constitute the creative source of the expressive power of religious discourses. Wayne Proudfoot has argued that mystical discourses embody a set of rules that repel any determinate understanding of the ineffable object or experience they purport to describe. In Comparative Theology and the Problem of Religious Rivalry, Nicholson suggests that this principle of negation is connected, perhaps through a process of abstraction and sublimation, with the need to distinguish oneself from one's intra- and/or inter-religious adversaries. Nicholson proposes a new model of comparative theology that recognizes and confronts one of the most urgent cultural and political issues of our time: namely, the "return of the political" in the form of anti-secular and fundamentalist movements around the world. This model acknowledges the ineradicable nature of an oppositional dimension of religious discourse, while honoring and even advancing the liberal project of curtailing intolerance and prejudice in the sphere of religion.
