Description

Taking a critical approach to the concept of ‘religious pluralism’, this book examines the dynamics of religious co-existence in Asia as they are directly addressed by governments, or indirectly managed by groups and individuals.

It looks at the quality of relations that emerge in encounters among people of different religious traditions or among people who hold different visions within the same tradition.

Chapters focus in particular on the places of everyday religious diversity in Asian societies in order to explore how religious groups have confronted new situations of religious diversity.

The book goes on to explore the conditions under which active religious pluralism emerges (or not) from material contexts of diversity.
