Introduction à la psychologie de la religion
Une introduction en dix-huit chapitres... ou plutôt dix-huit entrées dans le champ de la psychologie de la religion. Dès lors, nulle obligation de lire les chapitres dans un ordre prescrit. Le lecteur est bien plutôt invité à organiser sa promenade à sa guise, en commençant par les entrées qui l'intéressent en premier lieu. Dans l'ouvrage, les chapitres sont disposés en cinq parties. La première partie raconte les débuts de la psychologie de la religion et s'occupe de définitions. La deuxième partie présente des approches développementales : théories de l'attachement, du développement affectif et cognitif chez l'enfant et l'adolescent, du développement religieux tout au l...
When Children Draw Gods
This open access book explores how children draw god. It looks at children’s drawings collected in a large variety of cultural and religious traditions.

Psychologie du développement religieux
Depuis l'émergence de la psychologique comme discipline scientifique, nombre de chercheurs se sont intéressés à la relation entre les croyances religieuses et spirituelles, les attitudes, les pratiques et les indices de bien-être psychologique. Peut-on décrire, expliquer, mesurer et prédire le développement spirituel et religieux et a-t-il des liens avec les développements cognitif, affectif ou moral ? Cet ouvrage réunissant des spécialistes propose de faire le point sur les recherches menées depuis quarante ans dans ce domaine et de montrer le champ passionnant des possibilités nouvelles de comprendre les croyances. Sur le Dieu des enfants, le sens de la religiosité à différentes étapes de la vie ou les liens entre émotions et développement spirituel, cet ouvrage offre un éclairage nouveau sur les mystères de la prégnance de la religion dans nos sociétés sécularisées.

Our Most Troubling Madness
Schizophrenia has long puzzled researchers in the fields of psychiatric medicine and anthropology. Why is it that the rates of developing schizophrenia—long the poster child for the biomedical model of psychiatric illness—are low in some countries and higher in others? And why do migrants to Western countries find that they are at higher risk for this disease after they arrive? T. M. Luhrmann and Jocelyn Marrow argue that the root causes of schizophrenia are not only biological, but also sociocultural. This book gives an intimate, personal account of those living with serious psychotic disorder in the United States, India, Africa, and Southeast Asia. It introduces the notion that social defeat—the physical or symbolic defeat of one person by another—is a core mechanism in the increased risk for psychotic illness. Furthermore, “care-as-usual” treatment as it occurs in the United States actually increases the likelihood of social defeat, while “care-as-usual” treatment in a country like India diminishes it.
Salvation Goods and Religious Markets
The idea that religion has to succeed in a «market», selling «salvation goods», has proved to be extremely attractive to scholars in sociology and the study of religion. Max Weber used the term «salvation good» to compare different religious traditions. Pierre Bourdieu employed the term in order to analyze «religious economy». And recently, an American group of researchers advocating «rational choice of religion» put the theme at the forefront of current debates. This book - the fruit of an International Congress in Lausanne in April 2005 - brings together leading specialists in the fields of sociology and the study of religion who discuss the terms «salvation goods» (or religious goods) and «religious market». The authors test the applicability of these concepts by using specific examples and they either deliberately advocate or criticize Weberian, Bourdieusian or rational-choice perspectives.
