New Religious Movements and Comparative Religion
This Element provides an introduction to a number of less frequently explored approaches based upon the comparative study of religions. New religions convey origin myths, present their particular views of history, and craft Endtime scenarios. Their members carry out a vast and diverse array of ritual activities. They produce large corpuses of written texts and designate a subset of these as a sacrosanct canon. They focus their attention on material objects that can range from sacred buildings to objects from the natural world that are treated in ritualized fashion. The reason for this fundamental similarity between older and newer religions is briefly explored in terms of the cognitive processes that underlie religious concepts and practices. A final section returns to the issue of how such shared processes take specific shapes in the context of modern, Western societies.

Thinking About Religion in the 21st Century
The crisis of 21st-century religion is upon us. With fewer people remaining committed to traditional religions and most new religious movements in their infancy, where does that leave the vast “silent spiritual majority” who find the old religions to be obsolete and the new religions to be not yet credible? For everyday people who feel lost between a rejected religion of the past and a still obscure religion of the future, Thinking About Religion in the 21st Century suggests that there is indeed another way to look at religion, fully informed by 21st-century sensibilities, that requires no sacrifice of the intellect or abandonment of moral sensibilities. The old religions can be set aside, and the religions of the future might not yet have evolved into something worthy of full commitment, but there already exists a viable, evolving alternative spiritual perspective, grounded in the elements of everyday, ordinary human experience, already available.

Manifest För Filosofin & Vad Är Kärlek?
I Manifest för filosofin presenterar Alain Badiou grunderna för sitt filosofiska program genom att sätta dem i ett konkret sammanhang och ställa en rad kritiska frågor: Hur kan filosofin vara möjlig efter Marx, Heidegger och Freud? Kan filosofer tala om Sanningen, Grunden, Varat eller Subjektet? Eller ska filosofin bestå av utflykter till poesin, måleriet eller filmkonsten? Eller till politiken?De lika roande som oroande svar som Badiou ger på dessa frågor gör anspråk på att utgöra ett manifest för filosofins möjligheter idag.Alain Badious filosofi har sedan början av 1990-talet rönt allt större uppmärksamhet och han räknas idag som en av Frankrikes mest inflytelserika filosofer. Hans filosofi är trogen en radikal politisk strategi, samtidigt som den är förankrad i den analytiska filosofiska traditionen, den antika filosofin samt i den tankeströmning där Nietzsche och Heidegger är centrala namn.För denna volym har också Dariush Moaven Doust skrivit den första större introduktionen till Badious verk på svenska. Texturvalet är gjort i samarbete med Alain Badiou själv, översättningen av Carin Franzén.Alain Badiou föddes 1937 i Rabat, Marocko. Han är professor i filosofi vid Ecole Normale supérieure samt université Paris VIII, Saint-Denis.
