Description

This mature assessment by David Martin examines secularisation across fifty years of scholarly reflection, building on his earlier work On Secularization. Martin reframes how we understand the boundaries of secularisation, challenging the notion that America represents an exception whilst Europe follows a universal pattern. Instead, he argues that much of the world remains furiously religious, making Europe and Western secularisation the true aberration. The book explores the dialectic between Christianity and secularization, investigating how religious institutions interact with modern democratic societies and processes of cultural change. Martin deploys secularisation as a conceptual tool encompassing multiple dimensions, allowing readers to grasp complex relationships between faith, violence, governance and social transformation. This work will appeal to scholars of religion, sociology, anthropology and philosophy, as well as those interested in understanding contemporary challenges facing Christian institutions in secular societies.

Key Features

The Future of Christianity by David Martin provides fifty years of accumulated scholarly insight into secularisation and religious change.

This Routledge publication explores the dialectic between Christianity and secularization in contemporary democratic societies.

Martin challenges conventional assumptions about secularisation by repositioning Europe as the exception rather than America.

The book examines violence, democracy and religion as interconnected themes shaping modern Christian institutions.

Ideal for scholars studying anthropology, sociology, philosophy and religious studies seeking nuanced analysis of faith and secularization.
