Religion in Sociological Perspective

Keith A. Roberts

ISBN: 9780534579517
Publisher: Wadsworth Pub Co
Publication Date: 2003
Binding: Softcover

This text is a highly sociological view of religion and as such stresses theoretical perspectives about religion. The text also focuses on the methodology that sociologists have used to study religion. Roberts states that his own preferred approach is open systems theory, which he says focuses equally on structure and dynamics. Other texts may lean toward the religious studies end of the market, but Roberts is a true sociology text.
