“This book argues that since the late nineteenth century, societies around the world have lived through two broad historical formations, a Nation-State regime and a Global-Market regime, and that this shift is essential for understanding the dramatic religious changes of the past four decades. […] By bringing three major case studies under a single theoretical model, this book makes a fresh and ambitious contribution to the global sociology of religion. It is recommended for sociologists and historians of religion, scholars of Islam, Chinese religion, and Eastern European Christianity, and researchers working on globalization and religious change.”- Wei Xiong, Religious Studies Review
