内容説明
From television's earliest days in Britain, religious programming has featured as a basic element of public service broadcasting on all channels. This was, and is, a recognition of the fact that religion in its many forms plays an important role in British society, be it at the level of formal, organized worship or at the level of general social mores and beliefs. However, relatively little is objectively known about the religious climate in Britain in the late 1980s. Are people less religiously-minded than they were? Are religious beliefs widely held or not? How do people see the role of religion in modern society? And what is the place of religious broadcasting, and what do its audiences feel about it? This monograph pulls together a variety of research studies in order to look at these broad issues, charting the changes and constancies in the patterns of public attitudes and beliefs. Comparisons between major in-depth surveys from the 1960s and 1980s show that there has been a change, with overall "religiousness" declining, while the perceived unimportance of some religious and moral under-pinning of society has remained largely unchanged.
Large proportions of the British population continue to place great importance on religion. There is also clear evidence that religious broadcasting has a definite role to play, and that viewing religious programming is not necessarily the minority activity that is sometimes suggested.
