The book examines deep shifts in the religious life of Russia and
the post-Soviet world as a whole. The author uses combined methods
of history, sociology and anthropology to grasp transformations in
various aspects of the religious field, such as changes in ritual
practices, the emergence of a hierarchical pluralism of religions,
and a new prominence of religion in national identity discourse. He
deals with the Russian Church's new internal diversity in
reinventing its ancient tradition and Eastern Orthodoxy's dense and
tense negotiation with the State, secular society and Western
liberal globalism. The volume contains academic papers, some of
them co-authored with other scholars, published by the author
elsewhere within the last fifteen years.
