Next week’s Colloquium: François Gauthier on “Nation-State to Global-Market: An Alternative for the Sociology of Religion”At next week’s colloquium we have the pleasure to welcome François Gauthier who will give a presentation on “Nation-State to Global-Market: An Alternative for the Sociology of Religion”. François Gauthier is a Professor of the Study of Religions at the Department of Social Sciences at the Université de Fribourg in Switzerland. In his presentation he sketches the lineaments of a Mauss and Polanyi-based alternative for the sociology of religion. In the member area, you find the outline of his presentation as well as the chapter on “The marketisation of religion” from his book “Religion, Modernity, Globalisation. Nation-State to Market”. In view of steadily declining infection figures, we are again able to offer the colloquium as a hybrid event, and those who wish can meet François Gauthier in real life at our offices. Please register via e-mail if you want to attend in person. The number of participants is limited to 10 people – first come, first served. In the member area, you also find the zoom connection data in case you want to join the colloquium online. 16 June | 9.15–11.45 a.m. (CET)
