List of Contributors --$tIndex 330 $aThis volume offers unique insights into the mutually constitutive nature of social media practices and religious change. Part 1 examines how social media operate in conjunction with mass media in the construction of discourses of religion and spirituality. It includes: a longitudinal study of British news media coverage of Christianity, secularism and religious diversity (Knott et al.); an analysis of responses to two documentaries 'The Monastery' and 'The Convent' (Thomas); an evaluation of theories of the sacred in studies of religion and media within the 'strong program' in cultural sociology in the US (Lynch); and a study of the consequences of mass and social media synergies for public perceptions of Islam in the Netherlands (Herbert). Part 2 examines the role of social media in the construction of contemporary martyrs and media celebrities (e.g., Michael Jackson) using mixed and mobile methods to analyse fan sites (Bennett & Campbell) and jihadi websites and YouTube (Nauta). Part 3 examines how certain bounded religious communities negotiate the challenges of social media: Judaism in Second Life (Abrams & Baker); Bah'ai regulation of web use among members (Campbell & Fulton); YouTube evangelists (Pihlaja); and public expressions of bereavement (Greenhill & Fletcher). The book provides theoretically informed empirical case studies and presents an intriguing, complex picture of the aesthetic and ethical, demographic and discursive aspects of new spaces of communication and their implications for religious institutions, beliefs and practices. 410 0$aReligion and society (Hague, Netherlands) ;$v53. 606 $aChange$xReligious aspects 606 $aMass media in religion 606 $aMass media$xReligious aspects 606 $aReligion 606 $aSocial media 610 $aMass Media. 610 $aPublic Sphere. 610 $aReligious Authority. 610 $aSocial Media. 610 $aSpirituality. 615 0$aChange$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aMass media in religion. 615 0$aMass media$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aReligion. 615 0$aSocial media. 676 $a201/.7 701 $aGillespie$b Marie$f1953-$0548487 701 $aGreenhill$b Anita$01481819 701 $aHerbert$b David Eric John$01481820 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910787760203321 996 $aSocial media and religious change$93699058 997 $aUNINA
