Abstract

In modern social theory, religion and the ostensibly secular field of popular culture are typically seen as mutually exclusive, the former often being positioned as a site of residual pre-modern enchantment and the latter as a space dominated by the de-spiritualised operation of post-modern media appropriated for the purpose of marketing the products and services of capitalism.
