TY - JOUR T1 - Church In The Public Sphere: Production Of Meaning Between Rational And Irrational JF - Journal for the Study of Religions and Ideologies Y1 - 2014 A1 - Bratosin, Stefan KW - Church KW - Faith KW - media KW - production of meaning KW - public sphere KW - religion KW - symbolic forms AB - In the public sphere and especially in the media, the discourse on the Church and about the Church on faith and religion is often tainted by the confusion of meaning due, among other things, to the mutual borrowing less rigorous – epistemologically and methodologically – of the concepts which engage various disciplines (theology, sociology, anthropology, political science, information and communication science, and so on) who take possession of problematic centered on the relation between mankind and divinity. This article presents some basic benchmarks for analyzing and understanding the construction of meaning as well as the rationality or irrationality of these issues by convening the disciplinary distinction between the content of the concepts of organization and that of the institution.
