| Summary, etc. | Focuses on the world's religions and the changes they have undergone as they become more global and diverse in form. Explores the religions of the world not only in the regions with which they have been historically associated, but also looks at the new cultural and religious contexts in which they are developing. Considers the role of migration in the spread of religions by examining the issues raised for modern societies by increasing interaction of different religions. Also addresses such central questions as the dynamics of religious innovation which is evidenced in the rise and impact of new religious and new spirituality movements in every continent. Contains 54 lengthy, alphabetically arranged essays , many of which examine religious traditions both old and new, in the contemporary world. Jainism includes more discussion of the efforts in recent years on the part of Jain communities in Great Britain and North America to conceptualize traditional Jain beliefs through Western ideas of nonviolence, vegetarianism, and environmentalism than detailed account of the histroy of Jainism and its scriptures, monastic practice, and sects. Confucian heritage presents historical Confucianism in addition to its relevance to and in the modern world. Entries on new religious movements(e.g. NRMs in Africa and the Middle East) abound. Some of the more intriguing entries are not tradition specific, discussing such topics as Globalization and Religion and Migration and Religion. |
