“…« If authenticity is being true to ourselves, is recovering our own « sentiment de l'existence », then perhaps we can only achieve it integrally if we recognize that this sentiment connects us to a wider whole » 8 (1991 : 91). Selon Joseph Campbell, célèbre analyste des mythes, le message essentiel des mythes rejoint la quête moderne de l'authenticité, puisque ce message est « follow your bliss » (littéralement : suivez votre félicité ; à ce sujet, voir Morong, 1994). Le don moderne serait un fruit de cette quête d'authenticité, comme le suggère également Wuthnow (1991) à propos de l'activité qui semble la plus éloignée du don moderne : le bénévolat.…”

Jacques T. Godbout, "La norme de justice dans les relations de parenté". Un article publié dans la revue L'Année sociologique, vol. 45, no 2, 1995, pp. 351-370. Paris: Les Presses universitaires de France. RÉSUMÉ.-Quand les membres d'un réseau de parenté se réfèrent-ils à la norme de justice pour rendre compte de ce qui circule entre eux sous formes de cadeaux, d'aide et d'hospitalité ? Après avoir suggéré que la norme de justice est d'un usage limité et notamment qu'elle s'applique peu aux rapports donateurs-donataires, une réflexion plus générale est présentée sur les normes qui régissent la circulation des choses dans ces réseaux. ABSTRACT.-When do kinship family members use the norm of justice to regulate that which circulates between them as presents, services and hospitality ? We believe that this norm is used only in specific limited situations and make suggestions about the norms that are used more extensively instead. « Tout l'univers n'est qu'une immense société dont chaque corps céleste est une portion » (Durkheim, 1992 : 622)

“…Entrepreneurship scholars highlight similarities between Campbell's mythological hero and the entrepreneur of entrepreneurship theory (Catford and Ray ; McMullen and Dimov ; Morong ). Morong (), in particular, illustrates how Schumpeter's existentialistic portrayal of the entrepreneur offers an economic equivalent of Campbell's archetype. Schumpeter's () entrepreneur undertakes a journey into an environment filled with uncertainty and peril where others fear to tread.…”

Entrepreneurial identities and emotions can have profound effects on entrepreneurs. We examine how positive emotion (PE) among entrepreneurs may be influenced by the congruence they experience between their self-concept and the entrepreneur social identity. Given that uncertainty in the business environment can exert powerful effects throughout the entrepreneurial process, we further test the moderating impact of environmental dynamism on the relationship between identity congruence and PE. Results from a study of 175 entrepreneurs indicate that entrepreneurs experiencing greater congruence have higher levels of PE, and that this relationship is stronger in more dynamic environments.

In that academic world, McDaniel (McDaniel 2020) can confidently assert that 'The hero's journey is nonsense' (cf.…”

The views recently put forward by Fukuyama and Huntington showed that the academic world may once again be ready to think in large patterns of the rise and fall of civilisations. However, long before that, the Buddhologist Trevor Ling put forward a theoretical position regarding the rise and fall of civilisations and the vestigial survival of dead civilisations as ‘religions’. More recently, Naomi Goldenberg put forward a superficially similar, but, on deeper inspection, quite a different point of view on the power relationship between state institutions and the ‘vestigial states’ that contest the state’s monopoly on power and are known to us as religions. This article explored the differences and possible synergies between these two standpoints.Contribution: This article pleads for much attention to be paid to less well-known theories of religion and demonstrates with reference to the theories of Trevor Ling and Naomi Goldenberg how a virtual conversation between older and more contemporary theorists can open up new theoretical and methodological avenues for understanding religion.
