Alternative Voices: A Plurality Approach for Religious Studies : Essays in Honor of Ulrich Berner

When scholarship presents the histories, belief systems, and ritual patterns of specific religious groups, it often privileges victori-ous and élite fractions of those communities to the detriment and neglect of alternative, dissonant, and resurgent voices. The contri-butions in this volume, which include case studies on various religious and academic contexts, illustrate the importance of liste-ning to those alternative voices for the study of religion.
