Ritual Studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines the role and significance of rituals in various cultures and societies. It explores how rituals are performed, their meanings, and their impact on individuals and communities. Researchers analyze rituals in contexts such as religion, ceremonies, and festivals, focusing on their social, psychological, and cultural dimensions. This field draws from various disciplines, including anthropology, sociology, and psychology, to understand the functions of rituals. Scholars investigate how rituals can create a sense of belonging, mark important life events, and reinforce social norms. By studying rituals, researchers gain insights into human behavior and cultural practices.
