Synopsis

As a sociologist, Hans Mol significantly influenced the sociological study of religion by developing ideas of identity. This biography brings current social-religious topics to sharp focus as international scholars analyse, challenge, and apply Mol's theoretical assertions. This biographical material supports the overall content by describing Mol's key intellectual influences, and the way they offer a fresh perspective upon popular subjects such as secularization, pluralism, and the place of religion in the public sphere.
