“…Contrary to H2, ceteris paribus, the average level of higher education in each nation is not associated with individual religiosity. Since growth in education is seen as a key indicator of modernity (Barber 2011;Beckwith 1985;Kurtz 2007), this finding appears to support the "new paradigm" perspective that modernity is not necessarily associated with religious decline (Finke and Stark 1992). Per capita GDP, however, has a strong, negative effect on religiosity, which suggests that a different measure of modernity and national advancement does influence religion.…”

“…There is also support for the proposition that nation-level education reduces individuals' religiosity. The average level of education in a nation reflects the level of modernity (Barber 2011;Kurtz 2007), and the secularization literature suggests that modernity leads to declines in religiosity (e.g., Bruce 2002;Wilson 1982). The average level of education is also associated with greater acceptance of secularism (Schwadel and Garneau 2014), which may lead to religious decline by making it more socially acceptable.…”

“…En los últimos años estamos asistiendo a un incremento en relación al estudio de las relaciones existentes entre migración y religión que responde a un interés por profundizar en las características particulares -muchas hasta ahora invisibilizadas-, que esta interrelación presenta (Stepick 2006;Odgers 2006Odgers , 2014Martínez-Ariño et al 2011). Diversos autores y autoras han señalado el proceso migratorio como un importante factor de cambio en las representaciones y prácticas religiosas (Kurtz 1995;Odgers 2006Odgers , 2014 En el proceso migratorio, cuando abordamos cuestiones de identidad indígena es necesario aproximarse a su análisis tanto como una realidad de vivencia personal como una realidad colectiva teniendo en cuenta que se sitúa en la encrucijada de lo individual y lo social y es en esta confluencia en la que cobra sentido interrelaciondamente lo biográfico, lo social, lo histórico y lo cultural. Al ponerse en juego elementos del pensamiento y la conducta, por un lado, y las narrativas, creencias y símbolos por otro, convergen y se (re)construyen las historias: las propias y las colectivas.…”

“…Las migraciones como estrategias de adaptación y supervivencia han acompañado a los pueblos originarios hasta la actualidad conformando espacios y dinámicas de etnicidad y frontera que han sido objeto de estudio de notable interés para muchas y muchos investigadores (Leach 1954;Barth 1976;Gluckman 1987;Kurtz 1995;Fredericks y Nagy, 2016). En relación a los pueblos saraguro y cañar 2 del austro ecuatoriano, estos procesos migratorios comienzan a hacerse visibles a partir de los trabajos de Tual (1979) y Belote (1998Belote ( [1984), quiénes recogen extensamente las características de la migración laboral interna a principios del siglo XX en las que, frecuentemente, entre los saraguros se daba una gran cantidad: […] de viajes para trabajar en las minas de Zaruma (Bacacela 2003) e incursiones en la zona del Oriente, Yacuambi-Zamora, para formar pastizales y destinarlos a la cría de ganado vacuno" (Belote 1998: 282-381;Stewart, Belote y Belote 1976: 377-381;Belote y Belote 1985: 160-177).…”

“…For instance, lay Buddhists in China assimilate a lot of folk religious beliefs and practices—and thus constitute a special type of Buddhism called “folk Buddhism” (Lin ; Overmyer ). Such a mixing of Buddhism and folk religion is still alive in contemporary China (Fan ; Kurtz ; Leamaster and Hu ). Daoist practices and beliefs also overlap much with those of Buddhism or folk religion, as documented in ethnographic studies in Chinese societies (Feuchtwang ; Yang ).…”
