Summary: | This paper focuses on the strict norms one encounters primarily in conservative religious groups. Such precepts regulate the behavior of their members, distinguishing them from the social environment. There is a view that strict norms resolve the "free-rider problem" and foster more profound commitment of the believers. It seems, however, that such stricture is part of a more universal mechanism, which is involved in the process of social categorization. The norms establish a clear division between "us" and "others," enhancing the bond with the group. Attempt has been made to verify this conjecture based on the data from a survey by the Pew Research Center concerned with American Jews. |
