South Asian Religions On Display - Religious Processions In South Asia & In The Diaspora
by Knut A Jacobsen (Author),
Routledge (Publisher)
Product Specifications
Book Description
Religious procession is a significant dimension of religion in South Asia.
Processions are central not only in Hinduism, but also Islam, Christianity,
Jainism and Sikhism, which have large procession rituals. The last years have
seen an increase in processions and ritualizations of space both in South Asia
and in the South Asian Diaspora.
Processions are religious display events and the increase in processions are
functions of religious pluralism and competition about public space as well as
economic prosperity and a revival of religious identities. Processions often
bring together religion and politics since they are about public space,
domination and contestation.
Written by leading specialists on religious processions
