Contributors examine raving as a new religious or revitalization movement; a powerful locus of sacrifice and transgression; a lived bodily experience; a practice comparable with world entheogenic rituals; and as evidencing a new Orientalism. Rave Culture and Religion will be essential reading for advanced students and academics in the fields of sociology, cultural studies and religious studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931801714976,"sku":"NEW0415552508","price":74.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/rave-culture-and-religion-routledge-advances-in-sociology-0415552508","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
