商品簡介
During these early years of the 21st century, says de Kadt (emeritus, cultural anthropology, Utrecht U., the Netherlands), the dominant issues of religion and religious institutions revolve around the link of religion with extreme ideologies, sometimes even with extremism. He surveys the current scene regarding coercion in the name of God, modernity and multiculturalism: the growing impact of religions, religion and human rights, religion and authority in the Roman Catholic Church, Islamic fundamentalism in mainstream clothing, and the long arm of Jewish fundamentalism.
