In particular, they do so by engaging with social theories and addressing issues of epistemology and scientific reflexivity. The chapters of this book cover a range of different religious traditions and regions of the world such as Sufism in Pakistan; the Kabbalah Centre in Europe, Brazil and Israel; African Christian missions in Europe; and Evangelical Christianity in France and Oceania. They are based upon original empirical research, making use of a range of methods - quantitative, ethnographic and documentary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContributors are: Véronique Altglas, Peter Doak, Yannick Fer, Gwendoline Malogne-Fer, Christophe Monnot, Eric Morier-Genoud, Alix Philippon, Matthew Wood. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNotes on Contributors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: An Epistemology for the Sociology of Religion  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtestant Churches and Same-Sex Marriage in France: \"Theological\" Criteria and Sociological Approaches  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeconstructing Archer's (Un)Critical Realism  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpirituality and Discipline: Not a Contradiction in Terms  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCongregational Studies, Worship and Region Behaviour  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnmasking the Relations of Power within the Religious Field  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn Affective (U-)Turn in the Sociology of Religion?
