Bücher der Reihe Social Movements in the 21st Century: New Paradigms

As extreme and far right movements become increasingly widespread in many countries, the sociology of social movements is called to confront them. This book addresses the specific challenges entailed by the empirical study of such movements, presenting case studies from around the world.

This volume explores the history and development of the interfaith movement by engaging with new theoretical perspectives and a diverse range of case studies from around the world, and challenges the longstanding academic division of labour that confines 'religious' and 'social' movements to separate spheres of inquiry.
