A Systems Theory of Religion, still unfinished at Niklas Luhmann's death in 1998, was first published in German two years later thanks to the editorial work of André Kieserling. One of Luhmann's most important projects, it exemplifies his later work while redefining the subject matter of the sociology of religion. Religion, for Luhmann, is one of the many functionally differentiated social systems that make up modern society. All such subsystems consist entirely of communications and all are "autopoietic," which is to say, self-organizing and self-generating. Here, Luhmann explains how religion provides a code for coping with the complexity, opacity, and uncontrollability of our world. Religion functions to make definite the indefinite, to reconcile the immanent and the transcendent. Synthesizing approaches as disparate as the philosophy of language, historical linguistics, deconstruction, and formal systems theory/cybernetics, A Systems Theory of Religion takes on important topics that range from religion's meaning and evolution to secularization, turning decades of sociological assumptions on their head. It provides us with a fresh vocabulary and a fresh philosophical and sociological approach to one of society's most fundamental phenomena.

The contributions to the collection Systems Theory and Theology explore the interplay between systems theory, religion and theology, and the symbolic expressions and philosophical foundations of these academic disciplines. This endeavor is rooted in the oeuvre of the late Austrian physicist Alfred Locker (1922-2005), who firmly believed that systems theory would finally emerge, some sixty years after von Bertalanffy's seminal work on General System Theory, as a bridge-building metatheory between the sciences and religion. The essays in this volume show, however, that such conversation transcends the usual form of dialogue among these disciplines. The studies contained in this collection enter into a critical evaluation and reassessment of the dominant postulates of scientific and theological systems and their interaction. Systems Theory and Theology includes treatments of paradoxes (A. Locker), the inner sciences (Zwick), systems of meaning (Krieger), philosophy (Murphy), theology (Sedmak), isomorphies of religious symbols (Zwick), and the bridging of science and religion (M. Locker).

It is a truism that religion has to do with social cohesion, but the precise nature of this link has eluded scholars and scientists. Drawing on new research in religiously motivated prosociality, evolution of cooperation, and system theory, this book describes how fluctuations in individuals' strategic environment give impetus to a self-organizatory process where ritual behavior works to alleviate uncertainties in social commitment. It also traces the dynamic roles played by emotions, social norms, and socioeconomic context. While exploring the social functions of ritual and revivalist behavior, the book seeks to avoid the fallacies that result from disregarding their explicit religious character. To illustrate these processes, a case study of Christian revivals in early 19th-century Finland is included. The thesis of the book is relevant to theories of the evolution of religion and the role of religion in organizing human societies.

This volume comprises an English translation of Niklas Luhmann's Religi se Dogmatik und gesellschaftliche Funktion (Chapter two of his 1977 Funktion der Religion), which has been the subject of much discussion and controversy in Europe over the past 15 years. Peter Beyer also provides a 50-page introduction which treats some of the main concepts in Luhmann's abstract and difficult thought and also illustrates the way these concepts fit into his overall theory of society and religion."

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Klassiker und Theorierichtungen, Note: 1,0, Technische Universität Chemnitz (Institut für Soziologie), Veranstaltung: Systemtheorie, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In allen Kulturen und zu allen Zeiten waren religiöse Phänomene Teil des gesellschaftlichen Lebens. Aus diesem Grund mag es auch wenig verwundern, dass heutige Religionssoziologen auf eine lange Tradition innerhalb ihres Faches zurückgreifen können. Wie später noch zu zeigen sein wird, beschäftigten sich fast alle Klassiker der Soziologie intensiv mit dem Thema Religion. Doch so selbstverständlich wie uns eine wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit diesem Thema heute erscheinen mag, war sie in der Geschichte des Abendlandes keineswegs. Das "moderne" religionswissenschaftliche Denken ist das Ergebnis eines langwierigen Prozesses. Eine Aufgabe dieser Seminararbeit will es sein, den Beitrag Niklas Luhmanns im Rahmen seiner Systemtheorie zu diesem Prozess zu untersuchen. Um diese Fragestellung adäquat bearbeiten zu können wird sich der erste Teil dieser Ausarbeitung mit den historischen Entwicklungen hin zu einer allgemeinen Religionssoziologie und deren Probleme befassen, um im Anschluss die systemtheoretische Sicht auf die Funktion der Religion zu erarbeiten. Mit diesen Vorarbeiten soll im letzten Teil dieser Ausarbeitung ein Versuch gelingen, innerhalb Luhmanns Theoriegebäude eine Vorstellung von Moral und deren Folgen für eine Ethik 'nach' Luhmann zu entwerfen. Im Gesamten soll so eine Seiten- und Direktbeleuchtung der Systemtheorie Niklas Luhmanns entstehen

The book reflects on the statement that religion represents a force in the public realms of society. Does religion regain public significanc in social debates and what are its characteristics in terms of topics and interests, actors and parties? How do different religious and non-religious groups evaluate the impact of religion on its public environment? These questions are reflected by an international group of scholars.

While the churches are emptying, other virtual religious places – as the religious websites – seem to be filling up. The researcher focusing on religion and internet or digital religion as an object of study must seek answers to a number of questions. Is computer-mediated religious communication a particular communication process whose object is what we conventionally call religion? Or is it a modern, independent form of religious expressiveness that finds its new-born status in the web and its particular language? To examine the questions above, and others, the book collects more empirical data, claiming that the Internet will have a specific or novel impact on how religious traditions are interpreted. The blurring of previous boundaries (offline/online, virtual/local, illegitimate/legitimate religion) is another theme common to all the contributions in this volume.
