Description

Explore the complex history and meaning of secularization with this Routledge publication. While the term often suggests a simple decline in religious power, this book examines how the concept is actually multi-faceted and controversial. It provides a deep look into how the term has been used by both religious believers and non-believers to explain cultural and social changes. This text introduces readers to the diverse ways secularization impacts the contemporary politics of religion. By analyzing sociological classics and their views on the future of religion, as well as more recent and robust sociological claims, this book helps make sense of how religious influence shifts within modern society. It is an essential resource for anyone studying anthropology, sociology, or the social sciences.
