Intro -- Foreword -- Table of Contents -- The Region of Central and Eastern Europe: A Geography and Religious Studies Approach -- Religion and Values in Central and Eastern Europe -- Religion and Nation -- Eastern Orthodoxy and Its Churches in Central and Eastern Europe -- Church-Related Higher Education in Central and Eastern Europe Twenty Years after Political Transition -- Mapping New Religious Movements in Central and Eastern Europe: Approaching the Problem -- Sociology of Religion and Social Network Based Approaches in North America and Central and Eastern Europe: A Review -- Index of Persons.
Summary: The series Religion and Society (RS) contributes to the exploration of religions as social systems- both in Western and non-Western societies; in particular, it examines religions in their differentiation from, and intersection with, other cultural systems, such as art, economy, law and politics. Due attention is given to paradigmatic case or comparative studies that exhibit a clear theoretical orientation with the empirical and historical data of religion and such aspects of religion as ritual, the religious imagination, constructions of tradition, iconography, or media. In addition, the formation of religious communities, their construction of identity, and their relation to society and the wider public are key issues of this series.
