Markets of Singularities. Hybrid Religious Networks in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania

奇点市场。梅克伦堡-西波美拉尼亚州的混合宗教网络该项目利用前一个宗教混合项目的成果，旨在重建梅克伦堡-西波美拉尼亚州更大的宗教领域（P. Bourdieu）。因此，三个关键领域的治疗和精神治疗，生态和灵性，手工艺和精神工艺都归因于这个更大的宗教领域。它是作为一种社会实践，通过网络状和市场形形式的Vergemeinschaftung和Vergesellschaftung在奇点市场中构成和组织起来的。这些市场和认可和建立信任的归属机构同样可以建立、稳定或加强宗教交流。混合服务和象征性的重要工件作为需要外部验证的可销售的单一产品进行交易。由于标准化和可比性不能被视为理所当然，交换过程涉及根本的不确定性。因此，信念和信任必须提供可靠性和持续交换的前景。这些特定的（市场）机制植根于连接知识和信仰的符号系统。作为验证和建立信任的机构，网络、专家和专业代表了这些独特市场可能性的社会和文化条件。由于这种方法，由市场的（新）古典经济概念引起的约束被转化和解决。为了涵盖这些交换过程，设想诉诸宗教社会学的方法（H。Hervieu-Léger），特别是经济社会学（L. Karpik）。除了关于结构和稳定性的外部条件的问题，作为验证和建立信任的机构，关于这个更大的宗教领域的内部结构的其他问题将通过网络分析的方法以及通过引导式访谈和参与式观察进行调查。

Markets of Singularities. Hybrid Religious Networks in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania By taking recourse to the results of the preceding project on Religious Hybrids, this project aims at reconstructing the larger religious field (P. Bourdieu) in the state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. Thereby, the three crucial areas of cure and spiritual healing, ecology and spirituality, and handicraft and spiritual craftsmanship are attributed to this larger religious field. It is constituted and organized as a social practice by means of network-like and market-shaped forms of Vergemeinschaftung and Vergesellschaftung in markets of singularities. These markets and belonging agencies of validation and confidence building can likewise establish, stabilize or strengthen religious communication. Religious-hybrid services and symbolically significant artifacts are traded as marketable singular products requiring external validation. As standardization and comparability cannot be taken for granted, exchange processes involve fundamental imponderabilities. Therefore, faith and trust must provide for reliability and prospect of continual exchange. These specific (market) mechanisms are rooted in symbolic systems joining knowledge and belief. As agencies of validation and confidence building, networks, experts and professions represent the social and cultural conditions for the possibility of those peculiar markets of singularities. Due to this approach, constraints caused by (neo)classical economic concepts of market are transformed and resolved. For the sake of encompassing these exchange processes, it is envisaged to resort to approaches from the sociology of religion (H. Hervieu-Léger) and particularly to recent concepts from economic sociology (L. Karpik). Besides questions about external conditions of structure and stability as to agencies of validation and confidence building, additional questions on the internal structure of that larger religious field will be investigated via methods of network analysis as well as by means of guided interviews and participant observation.
