Nurit Stadler

Biography[edit]

Nurit Stadler was born in Kibbutz Harel, to Rachel Hofnung and Asher Stadler who immigrated from Argentina to Israel in the fifties as part of the Hashomer Hatzair movement.  At the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, she began studying for her BA and eventually received a Masters and Doctorate, under the supervision of the late Prof. Reuven Kahana, focusing on the sociology and anthropology of religion. She pursued Post-doctoral studies at Cambridge University under the supervision of Prof. Nicolas de-Lange in the faculty of Divinity. Returning to the Hebrew University, she joined the Department of Sociology and Anthropology.

Research[edit]

Stadler’s work demonstrates how elements of modernity—the liberal state, science and technology, secular education, mass media, and the labor market—have helped shape the distinctive features of religiosity. For the purpose of comprehending the religious resurgence and forms of devotion that mark our times, she employs a variety of methodological tools on the nature and practices of the following types of Jewish, Christian, and Muslim groups: fundamentalists, charismatic movements, and assorted groups of worshippers – cults and rituals. Her comparative study of these aspects sheds light on local socio-cultural developments as well as religious transformations throughout the globe. Her research papers covers topics such as: 'religion and economy'.[1][2]; 'The Ultra-Orthodox community'[3][4][5]; 'fundamentalism'[6][7][8]; 'sacred shrines of female saints'[9][10][11]; and 'the creation of enchanted sacred places'[12][13]. Stadler was interviewed and her research was covered in several newspapers and websites[14][15][16]
