Isi artikel

In this article, we examine whether problems of meaning are real. We begin by outlining the theory of meaningfulness that constitutes our point of departure. We then situate it within the context of the contemporary sociological debate about detraditionalization, thus clarifying our position in that debate. On the basis of those theoretical principles, we proceed to develop and test a number of hypotheses regarding the problems of meaningthat might be produced by detraditionalization. Subsequently, we investigate the effectiveness of some possible alternative sources of meaning. We conclude this paper by looking at the social implications of our findings.
