Description
Summary:This paper deals with analysis of central elements that worldview of religious fundamentalism contains. Introduction offers general indications on essence of fundamentalism. In further exposition we pay attention to determinative parts of it. In the first place, we want to comprehend the patterns of holy scripts interpretation that fundamentalists use. Further, we ask ourselves how they construct their own identity as well as identity of other, as well as, in what sort of politics do they swear in? What kind of relation towards death fundamentalists have? Also, what kind of concept of historical course do they offer? At the end, we endeavor to reach antropologic basis of fundamentalism as such.
