Özet
This study deals with the process of the relationship between the structure and agency in the history of sociology until today, in connection with the discipline of the sociology of religion. In addition, the globalization of the sociology of religion, which is one of the special sociology disciplines of the study and in the light of the communicative developments as a result of the modernization process, it now addresses its orientation towards mixed theories in social research. In this context, the study focuses on the interaction between relational sociology and religion, which is expressed as a mixed theory, in the context of virtual religious communities. The aim of the study is that relational sociology theoretically originates from social relations, to address the method of explaining religion and institutions as a structure and to understand this situation through the communities established in the virtual world, which is one of the social problems that the structure-agency relationship cannot fully solve. The article was handled with the historical documentation method and was created from a macro perspective.
