| 520 | |a Engaging David Chidester’s argument that takes up ideas from Marx and Benjamin, the article argues that the academic study of religion can make a contribution to understand the economy by conceptualising it as functioning like a religion.

The thesis is tentatively illustrated with reference to the Chinese economy that needs to be compared with other economic systems that function like a religion. | ||
