| 520 | |a The rational choice theorists of religion have attempted to build up a body of transcultural, universalistic generalizations, beginning with basic axioms of human rationality. The problematics of the perspective's analytical focus on one type of rationality are made evident by a comparison with Max Weber's types of action. The influence of the American religious experience is evident in the perspective's formulations and explanations, and conceptual and theoretical problems arise when the perspective is applied to non-western religion. The relationship between otherworldly rewards and supernatural beings proposed by the theory has to be modified with respect to eastern religions. Monopolism and pluralism take on different meanings in eastern religious contexts, and variations in state regulations have different consequences from those in the west. | ||
