Tiivistelmä

This article looks at European trends among religions from the perspective of the sociology of religion. It argues that the locus of religion/religiosity is shifting within the sphere of religious organisations and activity, and that the position of religion/spirituality seems to be changing in society at large and its boundaries or limits are being questioned. This is taking place in a social environment where international interdependency is growing. It seems that the post-Westphalian order of state-religion relations is being questioned, and there is a search for a new equilibrium in state-religion relations as part of the processes of Europeanisation and globalisation.
