The distinction between "insiders" and "outsiders" in religious
studies has become an area of fruitful discussion in recent years.
This anthology aims to extend that discussion by gathering newly
commissioned essays from a diverse range of scholars, spanning a
variety of disciplines and approaches, including ethnography,
anthropology, theology and education. The result is a book that is
at once accessible and readable, while remaining scholarly. The
Insider/Outsider Debate has implications for numerous
methodological issues in the study of religion, such as the
emic/etic distinction, the distinction between religion and
spirituality, the notions of "believing without belonging", the
claim to be "spiritual but not religious" and the existence of
multiple, complicated, contesting religious identities. A
particular focus of the volume is providing critiques of these
methodological issues within the most recent academic approaches to
religion - particularly models of lived and vernacular religion.
