    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis comprehensive companion is a much-needed reference source for the expanding field of radio, audio, and podcast study, taking readers through a diverse range of essays examining the core questions and key debates surrounding radio practices, technologies, industries, policies, resources, histories, and relationships with audiences. Drawing together original essays from well-established and emerging scholars to conceptualize this multidisciplinary field, this book's global perspective acknowledges radio's enduring affinity with the local, historical relationship to the national, and its unpredictably transnational reach. In its capacious understanding of what constitutes radio, this collection also recognizes the latent time-and-space shifting possibilities of radio broadcasting, and of the myriad ways for audio to come to us ''live.'' Chapters on terrestrial radio mingle with studies of podcasts and streaming audio, emphasizing continuities and innovations in form and conTrade Review"Radio's long history shines in this Routledge volume along with a spotlight on successes and new technology challenges for podcasting.

    Book SynopsisThis book focuses on the utility and application of discourse theory and discourse analysis in the sociological study of religious change. It presents an outline of what a âdiscursive sociology of religionâ looks like and brings scholarly attention to the role of language and discourse as a significant component in contemporary processes of religious change. Marcus Moberg addresses the concept of discourse and its main meta-theoretical underpinnings and discusses the relationship between discourse and âreligionâ in light of previous research. The chapters explore key notions such as secularism and public religion as well as the ideational and discursive impact of individualism and market society on the contemporary Western religious field. In addition to providing scholars with a thorough understanding and appreciation of the analytic utility of discourse theory and analysis in the sociological study of religious change, the book offers a cohesive and systematized framework for actuTable of ContentsPreface1 Introduction2 Discourse theory and analysis3 A three-level discursive approach to "religion" and related categories4 The "secular" and the "post-secular"5 Religion, the individual, and individualism6 Religion in Market SocietyBibliography
