This book focuses on the utility and application of discourse
theory and discourse analysis in the sociological study of
religious change. It presents an outline of what a ‘discursive
sociology of religion’ looks like and brings scholarly attention
to the role of language and discourse as a significant component in
contemporary processes of religious change. Marcus Moberg addresses
the concept of discourse and its main meta-theoretical
underpinnings and discusses the relationship between discourse and
‘religion’ in light of previous research. The chapters explore
key notions such as secularism and public religion as well as the
ideational and discursive impact of individualism and market
society on the contemporary Western religious field. In addition to
providing scholars with a thorough understanding and appreciation
of the analytic utility of discourse theory and analysis in the
sociological study of religious change, the book offers a cohesive
and systematized framework for actual empirical analysis.
