How can the irrational force of charisma co-exist within
rationalized religious institutions? To answer this question, this
book provides the first comparative anthropological explorations of
charisma as it occurs among Charismatic Catholics, Evangelical
Protestants, Sufis, Hassidic Jews, Buddhist cultists, and Native
American shamans in locations ranging from Massachusetts to Syria;
from Taiwan to the Dominican Republic; from Angola to the jungles
of Paraguay, from Rome to Brooklyn. These cases reveal how various
religious traditions incorporate ecstatic charismatic experiences
within their overarching organizational systems, and so provide new
insight into the nature of religion today.
