| Résumé: | This paper, a review essay of The Oxford Handbook of Religious Conversion (2014), first summarizes some of its social scientific chapters and then attempts to begin building an integrative theory of religious conversion. This theory is based upon a critical realist perspective and draws on Paloutzian's multi-level interdisciplinary paradigm of conversion research, recent developments in the cultural sociology of religion, and the language of conversion, and it could be extended to integrate additional levels. The paper ends with a brief discussion of human flourishing and the possible role of conversion in it. |
