Modalities of doing religion and ritual polytropy: evaluating the religious market model from the perspective of Chinese religious history
The 'modalities of doing religion' section in the article 'Modalities of doing religion and ritual polytropy' (pp. 549-552) constitutes an expansion and elaboration of ideas first developed in pp. 75-76 of my 2006 monograph Miraculous Response (the new section is about three times the length of the old section). It forms the theoretical underpinning for the entirely new arguments put forth in the article.
The 'death-related concerns' section in the article (pp. 560-561) is a slightly condensed version of pp. 135-136 in the monograph. It forms part of the essential background for the article's discussion on Chinese funeral specialists.
