In Religions and Trade a number of international scholars
investigate the ways in which eastern and western religions were
formed and transformed from the perspective of "trade." Trade
changes religions. Religions expand through the help of trade
infrastructures, and religions extend and enrich the trade
relations with cultural and religious "commodities" which they
contribute to the "market place" of human culture and religion.
This leads to the inclusion, demarcation and densification as well
as the amalgamation of religious traditions. In an attempt to find
new pathways into the world of religious dynamics, this collection
of essays focuses on four elements or "commodities" of religious
interchange: topologies of religious space, religious symbol
systems, religious knowledge, and religious-ethical ways of life.
