PROBLEM INSIDER DAN OUTSIDER DALAM STUDI AGAMA PERSPEKTIF RUSSEL T. MCCUTCHEON
Abstract: Russel T. McCutheon,
a critical figure in studying and responding to the issue of religion, argued
that in dealing with a modern and sophisticated life, a variety of approaches
must be used to produce a theory that can be understood and accepted by all
religions. In addition, no one would have felt marginalized from the structure
of social life as the world inhabited by human beings sometimes makes them feel
more powerful than the actual ruler. McCutheon gives an example of America and
Europe in which considerable change in the structure of the understanding and
culture of the community occurs because both regions have different characters
and cultures. Thus, an anthropological approach to understand the character and
behavior of the society and religion as a whole is necessary.
