Abstract
The main topic in this paper is non-ecclesiastical religiousness, a
field of sociology of religion which has in Croatia so far been given
little attention. In the process of forming new theoretical concepts,
new definitions of basic concepts and the application of new methods,
the main landmark should be the actual socio-cultural and historical
context, with complete awareness of all its relevant specific
features. Treading along this path will be uncertain and will take long
because the existing concepts, techniques and terms are applicable
only for the socio-cultural context of developed pluralist societies.
Therefore, in this initial phase, the main task will be gathering data
and their systematization as well as sociological description of communities.
