Abstract
Analysis of the relationship between religion and economics, as two dominant history-shaping concepts, without a doubt plays a significant role for the social sciences. The mutual relationship of ontologically different natures of these two elements, with a special position in this originality, rises to a more specific location. At this point, within the social sciences, approaches that consider as both dependent and independent variables, sign to stand out to specific research areas. Each of these areas that based on a long tradition, can also be confirmed on the greatness of the names encountered. Thus, with wealth creating religious perceptions, modernization, secularization and deterministic structure of economic sociology is on the one side , and with economics of religion dealing calmly at religious preferences, religious economics that considers economics as a complementary tool to a justification process standing on the other side. Through this decomposition, with the imperial character and accounting power, the controversial nature of economics appears by recoordinating its own relations. As a result, under the influence of the opposing waves in question, analysis of the relationship established with the ‘absolute’ also indicates to a consciousness for economics.
