Religion, Emotion and Morality

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Making an important contribution both to studies of Durkheim and the Durkheimian tradition and to the sociology of emotion, this book is distinctive in arguing that religion is an essential backdrop for understanding emotion. In making this claim Jonathan Fish provides a key to re-establishing links between the sociology of religion and the wider discipline of sociology.
