Description
Summary:This study uses religions census data collected by French dioceses in the fifties and the sixties and presents the regional variations in Church attendance for different occupational groups as well as the evolution of the gap between them. Specifically interested in contextual determinations, it tests, by means of regression analysis and at the level of the French county, the relationship between occupational structure and Church attendance and the interaction effects of socio-economic and demographie variables. The provisional conclusion is that the model of explanation of religions practice is certainly more complex than a mechanical relating of its level to a specific rank in the occupational hierarchy. Even so, we are still far from the strict and necessary connection between pertinent empirical observations and a genuine theory of social classes.
