Routledge Religion, Education and Post-Modernity - Routledge

Religion, Education and Post-Modernity is the first comprehensive exploration of how postmodern thought reshapes religious education theory and practice. This book examines the profound challenges and opportunities that post-modernity presents for religious education, offering both an accessible introduction and a substantive contribution to contemporary academic discourse. The work traces the emergence of post-modernity as a cultural and intellectual movement, analyses its transformative impact on religious belief and institutional religion, and investigates the implications for educators and learners. By bridging postmodern philosophy with religious education practices, this Routledge publication addresses critical questions about meaning-making, authority, and pluralism in secular and faith-based educational contexts. Essential reading for academics, educators, and students in religious studies, education, philosophy, and social sciences seeking to understand how postmodern perspectives challenge and enrich religious education.
