Continuity and change of religiosity : selected results of sociological research on religious attitudes

2017

Both continuity and change mark every process of culture, and hence belong to the field of religion. From another perspective, religion can be viewed as one of the most “conservative” constituents of culture. Consequently, it is not that easy, although interesting, for researchers either to observe different processes occurring in the field of religion or anticipate its long-lasting changes (e.g., in people’s religious attitudes).
