It examines and appraises some of the recent theoretical developments and methodological innovations in religious and social sciences. This volume offers the chance to extend the analysis of religious behaviours by means of conceptual and methodological models of economics. It goes far beyond the classical 'economy and religion' debate, and suggests not only theoretical but also epistemological changes in the study of religion: individual rationality and rational choice, market theory, demand and supply theory, branding and commodification of religion, believers 'consumer' habits, churches competitive strategies, for example. Of course, these are not exempt from criticism, which this volume also addresses. These detailed and localized case-studies range from experimental to ethnographic methods, psychological to cultural aspects of believing and practising cults in the scope of economics of religion. Geographical areas covered include Nigeria, Bolivia, Italy, Mexico, France, Korea, Nepal and Tonga. 410 0$aResearch in economic anthropology ;$vv. 31. 606 $aEconomics$xReligious aspects 606 $aReligion$xEconomic aspects 606 $aSocial Science$xAnthropology$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science$xSociology of Religion$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aAnthropology$2bicssc 606 $aSocial & cultural anthropology$2bicssc 615 0$aEconomics$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aReligion$xEconomic aspects. 615 7$aSocial Science$xAnthropology$xGeneral. 615 7$aSocial Science$xSociology of Religion. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xEconomics$xGeneral. 615 7$aAnthropology. 615 7$aSocial & cultural anthropology. 676 $a306.3 701 $aObadia$b Lionel$0517795 701 $aWood$b Donald C$01475221 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789888803321 996 $aThe economics of religion$93868633 997 $aUNINA
