Sumario:"Understanding Religion is a cutting-edge and innovative book that introduces students to interdisciplinary theoretical tools for understanding contemporary religiously diverse societies. Using critical approaches to religion and the politics of scholarship, the book includes coverage of decolonial, feminist, hermeneutical, poststructuralist, phenomenological, and other approaches.

This approach helps readers understand the practical application of theories"--
