Syncretism/Anti-Syncretism: The Politics of Religious Synthesis (European Association of Cultural Anthropologists)
Posted on 2010-04-14
|  |
Author: C. Stewart
Publisher: Routledge (1994) Binding: Library Binding, 240 pages pricer: $130.00 ISBN-10: 0415111161 editorialreviews Syncretism refers to the mixing of different religious traditions whether as active, ongoing process or as historical fact. In the present era of displacement, migration and generally increasing ``cultural compression'' syncretism is very much a current event. But syncretism does not just happen because religions have similarities and cross over into one another. It occurs in social conditions characterized by unequal power and it is sometimes directed by the interests and agency of prominent individuals. Contributors to this volume explore not only how syncretism occurs, but how the very idea of religious mixture is accepted or contested in ten different societies.
