The conversion career, defined as all episodes of participation
in religious organizations during a person's life, is a new and
systematic approach to conversion and disaffiliation as a dynamic
process. It is a tool to analyze the interplay of factors between
the individual actor, the religious organization, and the wider
social and cultural context.
This book is the first in over a decade to attempt a systematic
synthesis of the field of conversion studies, encompassing the
disciplines of anthropology, sociology, psychology, history, and
theology. Gooren analyzes conversion and disaffiliation in a
worldwide comparative framework, using data from North America,
Europe, and Latin America.
