The Economics of Religion: Anthropological Appraisals

A volume in the Research in Economic Anthropology series

Publié le vendredi 23 janvier 2009 par Delphine Cavallo

Résumé

Research in Economic Anthropology (REA), published by Emerald Press, is a peer-reviewed book series dedicated to the anthropological – including archaeological – investigation of economy and society. It has been in publication since 1978. Anthropological papers addressing the economics of religion in religious beliefs, behaviour, practices, organisations, or institutional dynamics are being sought for Volume 30 of REA.

Annonce
The editors aim at expanding anthropological theories beyond the classical relationships between economy and religion to embrace new perspectives on religious behaviour from an economics point-of-view, and at appraising the relevance of the economics of religion.

Therefore, preferred topics include:

Economic Theories of Religion including

  • Market Theory
  • Rational Choice Theory
  • Game Theory
  • Religious Consumerism
  • Symbolic Economy
  • Religious Ritual Economy

Also welcome, however, are more classical topics such as:

Religious Economies & The Influence of Economics on

  • Beliefs
  • Practices
  • Rituals 
  • Organisations
  • Diffusions

Deadline: March 2, 2009

Any previously unpublished manuscript that is economic, anthropological, and religious-oriented may be considered, but papers that (1) utilize original data obtained through empirical ethnographic research methods, and (2) in some way engage the general economic anthropology literature, will be especially welcome. The editors will seek an overall balance for the volume in geographical and topical focus.

Ideally, papers should not exceed 10,000 words (excluding notes and references). They should also be double-spaced, and all tables, figures, photographs, or other images must be of publishable quality and clear for publication regarding copyright laws. Authors need to include an abstract of about 100 words. Notes are to be arranged as endnotes, preceding references. Electronic submissions are preferred. Please use MS Word.

Either UK spelling or USA spelling will be acceptable.

Contact Donald C. Wood, REA series editor (wood@med.akita-u.ac.jp) or Lionel Obadia, volume co-editor (lionel.obadia@univ-lyon2.fr) for more information or to submit a manuscript.
