About the Book
The digital age with an astounding degree of ever
changing technological development has impacted religion and society in
profound ways including how people worship, organize their lives, relate to one
another, and relate to the natural environment. From the rural villages of
Southeast Asia to the political capital of the United States, digital
technology has transformed the face of religion and society – in some ways for
the better, and in other ways for the worse. This book examines a number of
conceptual topics as well as particular contexts as they relate to the theme of
religion and society in the digital age. The author addresses each topic from
an interreligious and intercultural approach, emphasizing contexts that may not
always be given adequate attention in popular publications and academic
studies. Writing and doing research from Asia, religious, social, and cultural
elements from this region are often highlighted by the author in order to
elucidate the points under consideration.
