I think for beliefs, the 33 marker could be:
-secularisation
-globalisation
-science
These 3 haven't come up after 2013
They could potentially ask about social change as the last time it came up was in 2013

how would you structure this Q (as a 33marker):
Assess the sociological explanations of the relationship between globalisation and religion?
Would you include things like:
- Meera Nanda
- Pentecostalism
- Confucianism
- Fundamentalism
- Cultural defence/migration
- Existential sec theory
- clash of civilisation

Yes your plan is definitely perfect!!! For the Nanda point, I spoke about how religion was linked with economic development and referred to Weber with hi theodicy about Calvinism (how it brought about modern capitalism in society when the workers invested money in businesses to make profits, not spending on luxuries etc. etc.). Then said that there are more up-to-date examples that show how religion and economical development complement each other rather than hinder. Talk about scientifically-educated, urban middle class assumed to abandon Hinduism for scientific and rational worldview and you oppose it by bringing in Nanda.

And religious market no? Potentially include examples too, i.e. development of Fundamentalism in response to 'Americanisation', Ayatollah Khomeini and Iran
Holistic Milieu and the growth of NRMs given the influence of technology and media?
Holistic Milieu and the growth of NRMs given the influence of technology and media?
For the fundamentalism I usually mention Islamic state (oppose modernity but ironically use modern methods to spread their message) or young male muslims reasserting their faith after considering British foreign policies regarding Afghanistan and Iran as being Islamophobic.

Is this okay for an essay plan for this question? Or is there anything else I could include... I think its probably all I could write in the time limit though!
‘Religion is still the most significant ideological influence in the world today.’ To what extent do sociological arguments and evidence support this view?
Religion is just changing – believing without belonging, spiritual shopping etc
Believing without belonging – people still believe but they don’t go to church – might not have time, want to worship privately (religion has become more privatised), vicarious religion – small number of clergy practice religion on behalf of larger number of people, for example, people use church for important rites of passage (getting married, christening etc) but don’t regularly attend.
Spiritual shopping – there is a greater variety of beliefs in society today because ethnic minorities have brought their religion with them when they transition into the new culture, more diversity for people to pick from, pick and mix religion – pick and choose the aspects that suit them – Leger says they are consumers in a religious market.
Relocation of religion – due to globalisation society has become more interconnected, time-space compression gives easy access to things that used to be hard to access – eg. the media have taken religions out of their original context and moved them to a different place (televangelism), religion is becoming deinstitutionalised but still significant for people.
Declining church numbers – since the 1857 census number of people going to church has fallen from 40% to around 10-15% in the 1960s, attendance and membership of large religious organisations (CofE) has fallen and is expected to fall further – state has taken over functions that used to be performed by religion – schooling etc so religion is not viewed as important today – schools meant to have daily acts of collective worship but only a few abide by this rule – not a significant ideological influence.
Second generation decline – religion is not being passed on from generation to generation any more, age of people going to church is growing and not attracting the young, parents may let child decide what they believe, Voas and Crockett called this the generational effect – 2/5 churches have no one under the age of 11 in their congregation
Impact of science – science has had huge impact such as eradicating once fatal illnesses, economic productivity and standard of living has increased – faith in science has grown, also decreased in recent years, things like global warming and pollution seen to be result of science BUT both good and bad aspects demonstrate cognitive power – science can predict, explain and control events in ways that other belief systems cannot
The italics is the for argument and the normal is the against
