The study has three foci: theoretical and methodological issues; religious diversity in non-Western contexts; and religious diversity in social contexts. Together, these trans-contextual studies are utilised to develop a critical analysis exploring how agency, power and language construct understandings of religious diversity. As a result, the book argues that reflexive scholarship needs to consider that the dynamics of diversification and homogenisation are fundamental to understanding social and religious life, that religious diversity is a Western concept, and that definitions of ?religious diversity? are often entangled by and within dynamic empirical realities. 410 0$aInternational studies in religion and society ;$vVolume 32.$x1573-4293 606 $aReligions 606 $aCultural pluralism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aReligions. 615 0$aCultural pluralism. 676 $a201/.5 702 $aKu?hle$b Lene 702 $aHoverd$b William 702 $aBorup$b Jĝrn 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910466435303321 996 $aThe critical analysis of religious diversity$92001890 997 $aUNINA
