| book description |

Practical theology has outgrown its traditional pastoral paradigm. The articles in this handbook recognize that faith, spirituality, and lived religion, within and beyond institutional communities, refer to realms of cultures, ritual practices, and symbolic orders, whose boundaries are not clearly defined and whose contents are shifting. The International Handbook of Practical Theology offers insightful transcultural conceptions of religion and religious matters gathered from various cultures and traditions of faith. The first section presents â€˜concepts of religionâ€™. Chapters have to do with considerations of the conceptualizing of religion in the fields of â€˜anthropologyâ€™, â€˜communityâ€™, â€˜familyâ€™, â€˜institutionâ€™, â€˜lawâ€™, â€˜mediaâ€™, and â€˜politicsâ€™ among others. The second section is dedicated to case studies of â€˜religious practicesâ€™ from the perspective of their actors. The third section presents major theoretical discourses that explore the globally significant diversity and multiplicity of religion. Altogether, sixty-one authors from different parts of the world encourage a rethinking of religious practice in an expanded, transcultural, globalized, and postcolonial world.
