  Sociology of religion is concerned with explaining religion as a social institution. The roles that beliefs and practices of religion play in the regulation of social relationships and the various ways in which religion emerges as the strongest motivating factor effecting human behaviour. The part played by religon in revolutionary social movements in preciitaing large scale social action, including war, as also the ways religion influences day to day social behaviour all fall within the gambit of sociology of religon. The encyclopaedia of scoiology of religion brings together path-breaking contributions from leading specialists on all important areas, including also the new trends of research in the broad field of sociology. Special care bas been taken to include articles, arranged thematically in three successive volumes, which cover all important understanding of the different concepts of religious life in the civilization of world.
