Analysis of the relationship between sociology of religion and social movement
Journal Title: International Relations and Security Studies Review - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
The study of social movements and the sociology of religion share common similarities and they can benefit from each other. Theorizing for both fields is somehow similar. This paper is an attempt to briefly present the supply-side and resource mobilization theories in the studies of the sociology of religion and the literature of social movements. The paper is a sort of comparative analysis for the sociology of religion and the literature of social movements. It presents a brief literature review of the supply-side theory, and some examples of studies that have used this model; brief presentation of the resource mobilization theory; and finally an assessment of the recruitment tactics and commitment levels in both fields of sociology.
