520 |a The concept of ecstasy has appeared in the writings of several important social theorists, for example Weber, Freud, and Mannheim. It is used to describe a mode of experience, very intense, probably of short duration, in which the person feels removed from himself and everyday life. The sociological problem is how this anti-institutional experience is in fact institutionalized by the social forms of religion, art, love, etc., all of which compete for control over the expression of ecstatic behavior. Individuals appear to require alternative kinds of experience to the struggles of everyday life. Ecstatic experience as a particularly highly-charged alternative which can be a powerful engine for social change. The struggle for control of ecstatic expression appears relatively tangential to the more mundane struggles for power.
