This title was first published in 2003:If God has departed, as
Baudrillard claims, is religion still relevant? A new religious
landscape is appearing in the new millennium. The middle classes
with their electronic technologies are producing a culture of
commodified images and signs that is radically transforming the
religious landscape and re-enchanting the world. Ecstatic
experiences pervade the reenchanted world. Both fundamentalism and
the New Age movement promote the free flow of charisma, reshaping
religion in unforeseen directions. Analysing the crisis of
modernity, this book delves into the intricacies of these movements
to examine the implications of religious change in the new
millennium. The authors provide an incisive assessment of religious
change in the West and Asia to suggest an eclecticism in
re-enchantment that will usher in new ideas about charisma,
consciousness and spirituality. These ideas focus on new forms of
shamanism that point the way to experiences of empowerment beyond
the structures of disenchantment.
