Reihe: Journal for Religion and Transformation in Contemporary Society - Supplementa

In a late modernity spinning out of control in the maelstrom of globalization, the question of community and the social bond resurges forcefully, embodying visions of both procedural integration and nostalgic recovery. This anthology inquires into the intersections of the inherently ambiguous quest for community, the way religious narratives accompany and feed into it, and the role of violence in the context of related social imaginaries.
