Religion and the Rural Environment
Ljudevit Plačko
Sažetak
Changes that are taking place in the
village are necessarily also changing
the dimensions of religion and
religiousness. Technological
progress, changing family functions,
raising the standard of living,
progress of science and higher
education are marking the way
people think and behave, and thus
also the manner of their
religiousness.

Under the influence of that
progress, some institutionalized
religions also started a process of
adaption. As the rural
environments into which religious
changes were to be introduced were
not all on the same level of
technological and social
development, their reactions to
innovations in religion were
different. Thus, the progressive
rural environment was not
satisfied with the changes offered,
and demanded religious concepts
and religious standpoints to be
completely adapted to the achieved
level of technological and social
development. The medium-
-developed rural environment
accepted the changes without
greater friction or tension; only
some individuals »rebelled«. On the
contrary, the undeveloped rural
environment generally took a
»defensive« attitude with regard to
innovations in religion, because it
considered them dangerous not only
for its traditional religion and
religiousness, but also for
traditional social relations and
social norms of behaviour in
general.
