We propose that all families

1992
Abstract Durkheim’s theory of solidarity presupposes that a ‘collective conscience’, or a system of shared values and beliefs, is a necessary condition of order.

Hastings Center Report, 2008
Death in the newborn intensive care unit, as elsewhere, is often marked by rituals. Some, like the cadence of a code or helping parents with their grief, are included in both the formal and informal education of physicians.

Ritual, Rituals, and Ritualizing in American Buddhism
Abstract Popular religious discourse in America both valorizes meditation as good and ritual as bad, and dichotomizes the two as distinct and separate. Historically rooted in the conflicts of the Reformation, these paired oppositions perpetuate a Cartesian-style dualism of mind and body, a privileging of thought over action, and an ...openaire +1 more source
Ritual Individuation and Ritual Change
Method & Theory in the Study of Religion, 2009AbstractWhat makes a ritual performance an instance of one ritual and not another? When we observe unfamiliar rituals, how do we know where one ends and the next begins? Is there a principled way of distinguishing mere preparations from the ritual proper? Can rituals change, and how do we know if they have changed?
