Chapter Chapter 30 in Religious Doctrines and their Influence on Entrepreneurship, 2023, pp 225-231 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The world’s primal religions predate recorded history. There is no way of knowing how many adherents that they have attracted, nor exactly what they believe. These will be referred to as primal because they came first; but they have also been referred to as tribal because their groupings were invariably small and because writing was unknown. This mode of religiosity continues in Africa, Australia, Southeast Asia, the Pacific Islands, Siberia, and among the Indians of North and South America. Their numbers are diminished but they are important for their influence and the contrasting light that they throw on the historical religions that we will engage.
