Over the past decade, religious, secular, and spiritual distinctions have broken down, forcing scholars to rethink secularity and its relationship to society. Since classifying a person, activity, or experience as religious or otherwise is an important act of valuation, one that defines the characteristics of a group and its relation to others, scholars are struggling to recast these concepts in our increasingly ambiguous, pluralistic world.

ISBN: 9780226042800 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

After Pluralism: Reimagining Religious Engagement
ISBN: 9780231152334 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The contributors to this volume treat pluralism as a concept that is historically and ideologically produced or, put another way, as a doctrine that is embedded within a range of political, civic, and cultural institutions. Their critique considers how religious difference is framed as a problem that only pluralism can solve. Working comparatively across nations and disciplines, the essays in After Pluralism explore pluralism as a "term of art" that sets the norms of identity and the parameters of exchange, encounter, and conflict. Contributors locate pluralism's ideals in diverse...
