<研究創案ノート>消費される＃FakeRumi --現代トルコにおけるスピリチュアリティとスーフィズム再考--

Abstract

This paper discusses trends in Sufism from the perspectives of spiritual development and marketing. It focuses on the situation in which Rumi is widely accepted as one of the greatest poets and Sufi thinkers in contemporary Turkish society, although he has been used as a tool of spiritual interpretation and capitalist marketing since the New Age. It begins by discussing New Religion and spirituality and focuses on the spiritual market in Islam. It examines the commodification of religion using Rumi’s interpretations. It will also explain the religious views of contemporary Turkish youth and discuss the spirituality and transformation of Sufism. By doing so, it aims to analyze the background of contemporary Turkish society and identify religious trends in the changing relationship between Islam, spirituality, and Sufism.
