Description
The Dialectics of the Religious and the Secular: Studies on the Future of Religion contains the work of 15 international scholars who have wrestled with the question of the relevancy, meaning and future of religion within the context of the increasing antagonisms between the religious and secular realms of modern civil society and its globalisation. Each author indicates the possibility of mitigating or preventing the continuation of this antagonism by historically moving toward a more reconciled and humane future global society.
