". . . one of those rare edited volumes that advances social thought as it provides substantive religious and media ethnography that is good to think with." -Dale Eickelman, Dartmouth College

Increasingly, Pentecostal, Buddhist, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, and indigenous movements all over the world make use of a great variety of modern mass media, both print and electronic. Through religious booklets, radio broadcasts, cassette tapes, television talk-shows, soap operas, and documentary film these movements address multiple publics and offer alternative forms of belonging, often in competition with the postcolonial nation-state. How have new practices of religious mediation transformed the public sphere? How has the adoption of new media impinged on religious experiences and notions of religious authority? Has neo-liberalism engendered a blurring of the boundaries between religion and entertainment? The vivid essays in this interdisciplinary volume combine rich empirical detail with theoretical reflection, offering new perspectives on a variety of media, genres, and religions.

Rezension zu „Religion, Media, and the Public Sphere “
... one of those rare edited volumes that advances social thought as it provides substantive religious and media ethnography that is good to think with. --Dale Eickelman, Dartmouth College "... an important contribution to a flourishing ethnographic literature on the globalizing nexus of religion and media ... Taken together, these chapters complexify and energize the 'public sphere' as Jurgen Habermas conceptualizes this realm, and also show mass mediations close relationship to religious identity politics... Religion, Media, and the Public Sphere deepens the inquiry into the 'new politics of belonging' ... that mass media facilitate in realms of faith making. As is apparent in the books fine introduction ... anthropology has much to gain by continuing its engagements along these lines." American Anthropologist
