Part of the Social Science Research Council series
Hardback
Description
The Post-Secular in Question considers whether there has in fact been a religious resurgence of global dimensions in recent decades.
This collection of original essays by leading academics represents an interdisciplinary intervention in the continuing and ever-transforming discussion of the role of religion and secularism in today’s world.
Foregrounding the most urgent and compelling questions raised by the place of religion in the social sciences, past and present, The Post-Secular in Question restores religion to a more central place in social scientific thinking about the world, helping to move scholarship “beyond unbelief.” Contributors: Courtney Bender, Craig Calhoun, Michele Dillon, Philip S.
Gorski, Richard Madsen, Kathleen Mahoney, Tomoko Masuzawa, Eduardo Mendieta, John Schmalzbauer, James K.
A. Smith, John Torpey, Bryan S. Turner, Hent de Vries.
