"Religious Pluralism and the City challenges the notion that the city is a secular place, and calls for an analysis of how religion and the city are intertwined. It is the first book to analyze the explanatory value of a number of typologies already in use around this topic – from "holy city" to "secular city", from "fundamentalist" to "postsecular city". By intertwining the city and religion, urban theory and theories of religion, this ..."
"Religious Pluralism and the City challenges the notion that the city is a secular place and calls for analysis of how the two are intertwined. Given the rise of religiously inspired violence, the master narrative that modern societies are secular societies has lost its empirical plausibility. Instead, we are seeing the pluralisation of religion, the co-existence of different religious worldviews, and the simultaneity of secular and reli ..."

"global. city. Jörg. Dürrschmidt. Introduction: globalization. pathos. on. trial. With
the benefit of hindsight, it is fair to say that Living the global city was a book
project carried by the zeitgeist of the 1990s. Symbolized by the iconic fall of the
Berlin Wall, 1989 and after stood for the utopia(s) of a borderless world. Free
trade and the deregulated flow of finance, electronic means of communication
and transport systems of ..."
"Although there has been a massive increase in the volume of pilgrimage research and publications, traditional Anglophone scholarship has been dominated by research in Western Europe and North America. In their previous edited volume, International Perspectives on Pilgrimage Studies (Routledge, 2015), Albera and Eade sought to expand the theoretical, disciplinary and geographical perspectives of Anglophone pilgrimage studies. This new co ..."

"Garcin de Tassy claims that the pilgrimage to Shah Madar's tomb is the most
popular, while in the 1832 English version of Jafar Sharif's book only two pages
are devoted to this shrine and pilgrimage is described as a 'visit to his tomb' (
Jafar Sharif, 1832: xxxi)—obviously a translation of the vernacular term, ziyarat.
Sharif only refers to ziyarat in the context of the annual calendar of celebrations
and offerings, and saw it as r ..."

Seeking to address such a deficit, this book brings together scholars from central, eastern and south-eastern Europe to explore the crossing of borders in terms of the relationship between pilgrimage and politics, and the role which this plays in the process of both sacred an ..."

"It was not until the end of the twentieth century that Enikő Csukovits brought the
scattered data on medieval pilgrimage together. She presented the sources for
mediaeval pilgrimages, the destinations, the motivations for pilgrimages and their
different types. On the basis of these sources she traced the structure of the
pilgrimages from the departure through the journey and to the arrival back home,
and she analysed the social com ..."
