Мапа релігійних практик від Прикарпаття до Кавказу

Анотація

This volume of collected articles examines the former USSR via an anthropological approach to the study of religion. According to editor Catherine Wanner: “To study from an anthropological point of view means to use comparative description and analysis; to consider a certain phenomenon from a holistic perspective; to avoid evaluative judgments but hold on to analytical passion; to use the particular (micro level) for understanding the whole (macro level).” There is a single exception to the “former USSR” rule: the article by Iuliia Buyskykh is dedicated to the pilgrimage of Ukrainians to holy places in Poland. The collected volume covers both the Soviet and post-Soviet periods.
