Brill Rousseau and Critical Theory
Book SynopsisIn Rousseau and Critical Theory, Alessandro Ferrara argues that among the modern philosophers who have shaped the world we inhabit, Rousseau is the one to whom we owe the idea that identity can be a source of normativity (moral and political) and that an identity's potential for playing such a role rests on its capacity for being authentic. This normative idea of authenticity brings unity to Rousseau's reflections on the negative effects of the social order, on the just political order, on education, and more generally, on ethics. It is also shown to contain important teachings for contemporary Critical Theory, contemporary views of self-constitution (Korsgaard, Frankfurt and Larmore), and contemporary political philosophy.

Brill Reflexive Religion: The New Age in Brazil and Beyond
Book SynopsisReflexive Religion: The New Age in Brazil and Beyond examines the rise of alternative spiritualities in contemporary Brazil. Masterfully combining late modern theory with multi-site ethnographies of the New Age, it explains how traditional religion is being transformed by processes of reflexivity, globalization and individualism. The book unveils how the New Age has entered Brazil, was adapted to local Catholic, Spiritist and psychology cultures, and more recently how the Brazilian Nova Era re-enters transnational circuits of spiritual practice. It closely examines Paulo Coelho (spiritualist novels), Projectiology (astral projection) and Santo Daime (neo-shamanism) to understand the broader “new agerization” of Christianity and Spiritualism. Reflexive Religion offers a compelling account of how the religious field is being updated under late modern conditions.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements 1 Introduction to the Spirit of the New Age in Brazil 1 Subtle Patterns of New Age Conversion 2 Problematizing the Modern Self 3 Post-Traditional Religiosities: Individualism and Reflexivity 4 Methodological Challenges: Identifying New Agers 5 Book Structure: Native Expressions and a General Theory of the New Age 2 Post-Traditional Religiosities: Reflexivity and Individualism Transforming the Religious Field 1 Reflexivity in Contemporary Religions: From Totalization to Privatization 2 The Crisis of Modernity and the Rise of Post-Traditional Religiosities 3 Revisiting Self-Realization 3 Sociological Overview of the New Age 1 Introduction: Globalization of Reflexive Mysticism 2 Sociological Aspects of the New Age 2.1 Social Class and Distinction 2.2 Gender and Race 2.3 Generational Differences 3 Reflexive Xenophilia 4 Conclusion: The Reflexivity of Nomadic Spiritualities 4 The Perfect Self: Neo-Enlightenment and Romanticism in New Religious Forms 1 Enlightenment and Romanticism: From Reason to Self-Shaping 2 The Duality Today 3 Further Interconnections: Love and Power in Tension 5 Ethnology of the New Age in Brazil: Hybridism, Individualism and Reflexivity 1 Beliefs in Brazilian New Age 2 Genealogy of the Term 3 Major Theoretical Options 4 Ethnological Categories of the New Age 4.1 Hybridism 4.2 Individualism 4.3 Experimentalism 4.4 Reflexivity 5 New Age as the Popularization of an Elite Mysticism 6 The New Age in Brazil: Religious Individualism between Spiritism and Psychological Culture 1 Mapping the New Age in Brazil 2 Mapping the New Age in the Brazilian Religious Field 7 Psychological Culture: Management, Therapy and Art in the New Age 1 Therapy, Management and Reflexivity 2 Conclusion: Art as Emancipatory Spirituality 8 The New Age Christianity of Paulo Coelho 1 “Invisible Religion” in Rio de Janeiro 2 The New Age Christianity of Paulo Coelho 3 New Age References 4 Christian References 5 New Age and Catholicism in Perspective 6 The Cultural Meaning of Post-Traditional Christianity 9 New Age Spiritism: The Supernatural between “The Doctrine” and Reflexivity 1 The Common Sources of Spiritism and New Age in Brazil 2 The Fragmentation of Spiritism under New Age Pressures 3 Conclusion: The New Agerization of Brazilian Religions 10 Niche Globalization of a Brazilian Parascience: The Case of Projectiology/Conscientiology 1 Structure and Agency in Organizational Growth 2 Out-of-Body Experience, Parascience and Niche Globalization 3 Parasciences and Globalization: New Age Hybrids between Science and Religion 4 Secular Spirituality: Organization, Cosmology and Ethos of Projectiology 5 From Ipanema to China: Spaces, Channels and Barriers to Projectiology 6 Conclusion: National Cosmologies and Transnational Possibilities 11 New Age in Latin America: From Gregarious Syncretism to Reflexive Individualism 1 What’s New in the New Age? 2 Reflexivity and Individualism in Post-Traditional Religiosities 3 New Age Studies in Latin America 4 Gregariousness and Individualism in Latin American New Age 5 New Religious Studies as Pseudo-New Age 6 Conclusion: New Age as Post-Traditional Spiritualities of the Self 12 Final Thoughts: The New Age as a Religious Pragmatic of Late Modernity 1 The Logic of Post-Traditional Religiosities 2 The Rise of Reflexive Religiosities 3 Neither Secularization nor Re-Enchantment Bibliography Index

Brill Culture, Personality, and the Psychology of Religion
Book SynopsisCulture and personality are deeply related. Gerard Saucier articulates their interface, and new insights regarding the psychology of religion and spirituality. Rather than making assumptions of cultural homogeneity that promote stereotyping, Gerard Saucier applies a distributive model of culture which assumes heterogeneity, linking the otherwise separate compartments of culture and personality. Personality variation maps cultural non-uniformity, but variation in mindset (attitudes, beliefs, values) does so more directly. Studies of isms concepts embedded in natural language demonstrate that matters of religion and spirituality make up a substantial fraction of culture-relevant mindset, and empirical evidence shows these have a large effect-size contribution to cultural differences between nations around the globe. This book will be of much interest to specialists and (post-graduate) graduate students interested in culture, personality, and religion or spirituality.Table of Contents Abstract Keywords 1 Preamble 2 Definitions 3 Culture and Personality Structure 4 Mindset and Culture 5 Variants of the DMC (Distributive Model of Culture) 6 The Utility of a Distributive Model of Culture 7 Distributive Models of Ideology and Religion 8 Culture and Personality Recap 9 Ideology and Worldview from Standpoint of Culture, Personality, and a DMC 10 The First Isms Study Method 11 The Second Isms Study 12 Evidence on Spirituality without Religiousness 13 Cross-cultural Differences in a Global Survey of World Views 14 Enduring- and Evolving-order Societies, and Their Meaning and Material Regimes 15 Further Domains of Culture 16 Religion (and Spirituality) as Culture and Personality: Further Synthesis 17 The Matter of Mysticism and Morality 18 Culture, Personality, and Religion – Summarily Integrated 19 Epilogue on Future Directions References Index

Springer The Science of Well-Being: The Collected Works of Ed Diener
Book SynopsisMajor Theoretical Questions Theories about subjective well-being have grown over the past several decades, but have been re ned only slowly as adequate data have been compiled to test them. We can characterize the theories describing happiness along several dimensions. The rst dimension is whether the theory places the locus of happiness in external conditions such as income and status, as many sociological theories do, or within the attitudes and temperament of the individual, as many psychological theories do. Some have maintained that people adapt to all circumstances over time, so that only individual personality matters for producing happiness, whereas others believe that economicandothersocietalfactorsarethedominantforcesinproducingwell-being. Throughout my writings there is a mix of both the internal and external factors that in uence well-being. A second dimension that characterizes scholarship on well-being is the issue of whether the factors affecting well-being are relative or absolute. That is, are there standards used by people at all times and places in judging their lives and in reacting to events? Or are standards dependent on what other people possess, on expec- tions,andonadaptationlevelsbasedonpastcircumstances?Again,thereisevidence supporting the role of both universal and relative standards. People around the globe are probably in uenced by common factors such as friendship versus loneliness, but even these universal in uences on happiness are probably subject to some degree of comparison depending on what the person is used to and what others have. However, some factors might be much more comparative than other in uences, as Hsee, Yang, Li, and Shen (in press) have described.Trade ReviewFrom the reviews: “The Science of Well-Being, is a potpourri of papers—literature reviews and theory pieces—that overview the field that Diener helped establish. … Certainly academic researchers interested in well-being will find them extremely useful. … The audience should extend beyond research psychologists and include policy makers as well as interested members of the general public. … the collected works of Ed Diener are timely, impressive, and useful.” (Christopher Peterson, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 54 (50), 2009)Table of Contents1.

Springer Institutions, Emotions, and Group Agents: Contributions to Social Ontology
Book SynopsisThe contributions gathered in this volume present the state of the art in key areas of current social ontology. They focus on the role of collective intentional states in creating social facts, and on the nature of intentional properties of groups that allow characterizing them as responsible agents, or perhaps even as persons. Many of the essays are inspired by contemporary action theory, emotion theory, and theories of collective intentionality. Another group of essays revisits early phenomenological approaches to social ontology and accounts of sociality that draw on the Hegelian idea of recognition. This volume is organized into three parts. First, the volume discusses themes highlighted in John Searle’s work and addresses questions concerning the relation between intentions and the deontic powers of institutions, the role of disagreement, and the nature of collective intentionality. Next, the book focuses on joint and collective emotions and mutual recognition, and then goes on to explore the scope and limits of group agency, or group personhood, especially the capacity for responsible agency.The variety of philosophical traditions mirrored in this collection provides readers with a rich and multifaceted survey of present research in social ontology. It will help readers deepen their understanding of three interrelated and core topics in social ontology: the constitution and structure of institutions, the role of shared evaluative attitudes, and the nature and role of group agents.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements.- Chapter 1.

Springer Handbook of the Sociology of Mental Health
Book SynopsisThis second edition of the Handbook of the Sociology of Mental Health features theory-driven reviews of recent research with a comprehensive approach to the investigation of the ways in which society shapes the mental health of its members and the lives of those who have been diagnosed as having a mental illnessThe award-winning Handbook is distinctive in its focus on how the organization and functioning of society influences the occurrence of mental disorder and its consequences. A core issue that runs throughout the text concerns the differential distribution of mental illness across various social strata, defined by status characteristics such as gender, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and age. The contributions to this volume shed light on the social, cultural, and economic factors that explain why some social groups have an elevated risk of disorder. They also address the social repercussions of mental disorder for individuals, including stigmatization within the larger society, and for their families and social networks.The second edition of this seminal volume includes substantial updates to previous chapters, as well as seven new chapters on: -The Individual’s Experience of Mental Illness.--The Medicalization of Mental Illness.---Age, Aging, and Mental Health.- -Religion and Mental Health.- -Neighborhoods and Mental Health.- -Mental Health and the Law—and Public Beliefs about Mental Illness. Trade ReviewFrom the reviews of the second edition:“Aneshensel, Phelan, and Bierman have compiled an anthology of academic essays showing how mental illness plays out within these social spaces … . the handbook project is readable, and as comfortable with theory as with the complex human qualities of mental illness.
