Description

This book is the summation of many decades of work by Peter L.

Berger, an internationally renowned sociologist of religion.

Secularization theory-which saw modernity as leading to a decline of religion-has been empirically falsified.

It should be replaced by a nuanced theory of pluralism.

In this new book, Berger outlines the possible foundations for such a theory, addressing a wide range of issues spanning individual faith, interreligious societies, and the political order.

He proposes a conversation around a new paradigm for religion and pluralism in an age of multiple modernities.

The book also includes responses from three eminent scholars of religion:Nancy Ammerman, Detlef Pollack, and Fenggang Yang.
