| In: | Conversion after socialism : disruptions, modernisms and technologies of faith in the former Soviet Union. (2009.), |
| Abstract: | Examines apparent paradox in religious lives of contemporary Altaytsy in Respublika Altay. Observes that Altaytsy maintained they never "had" a religion or religions, especially during Soviet times, and that now they are working towards achieving this goal, with result that they have several religions and world-views. Explains this unusual situation by arguing that what is happening in contemporary Altay involves intensive and widespread conversion to Western notion of religion. |
