Does modernization lead to the decline of religion? This
question lies at the centre of a key debate in the sociology of
religion. During the past decade American scholars, using primarily
American data, have dominated this debate and have made a strong
case that the answer to this question is no. Recently, however, a
new crop of European scholars, working with new sources of European
data, have uncovered evidence that points toward an affirmitive
answer.
This volume pays special attention to these trends and
developments to provide the reader with a more well-rounded
understanding of the many ways in which religion interacts with
modernization. Respected scholars such as David Voas, Steve Bruce
and Anthony Gill examine modern societies across the world in this
splendid book which will interest sociologists, political
scientists, historians, and theologians in equal measure.
