Inhaltsangabe

Max Weber's sociological theories of secularization have vastly influenced the study of Protestant belief. "Protestant Modernity" offers a multifaceted understanding of secularization within the broader context of nineteenth-century liberal Protestantism. Anthony J. Carroll reconstructs Weber's original writings to highlight Protestant motifs, reviews current secularization theories, and settles debates about contested meanings of secularization in a volume that will be essential reading for students and scholars of theology and the sociology of religion.
