商品簡介
Religion is a way of life involving traditions, beliefs, histories, practices, rituals, persons (real and imaginary) and institutions. This way of life is neither true nor false, only satisfying, engaging, sustaining or beautiful - but can outsiders ever understand the inside world of religion or is an outsider position more objective and scientific? Examining the dynamics of Islamophobia and women's Islamic activism, Bryan S. Turner critically examines the notion of positionality and its application in the study of contemporary Muslim religiosity.
