This volume examines the role and function of religious-based
organizations in strengthening associational life in a
representative sample of West European countries: newly
democratized and long-established democracies, societies with and
without a dominant religious tradition, and welfare states with
different levels and types of state-provided social services. It
asks how faith-based organizations, in a time of economic crisis,
and with declining numbers of adherents, might contribute to the
deepening of democracy. Throughout, the volume invites social
scientists to consider the on-going role of faith-based
organizations in Western European civil society, and investigates
whether the concept of muted vibrancy aids our theoretical
understanding.
