Drawing from multiple fields, it brings together theoretical discussion and empirical case studies that illustrate "on-the-ground," extant secularisms as they interact with various religious, political, social, and economic contexts. Its point of departure is the fact that secularism is plural and that various secularisms have developed in various contexts and from various traditions around the world. Secularism takes on different social meanings and political valences wherever it is expressed. The essays collected here provide numerous points of contact between empirical case studies and theoretical reflection. This multiplicity informs and challenges the conceptual theorization of secularism as a universal doctrine. Analyses of different regions enrich our understanding of the meanings of secularism, providing comparative range to our notions of secularity. Theoretical treatments help to inform our understanding of secularism in context, enabling readers to discern what is at stake in the various regional expressions of secularity globally. While the bulk of the essays are case-based research, the current thinking of leading theorists and scholars is also included. 410 0$aReligion and its others ;$vVolume 2. 606 $aSecularism 606 $aPostsecularism 606 $aReligion 610 $aSecularism. 610 $aglobal. 610 $apost-secularism. 610 $areligion. 615 0$aSecularism. 615 0$aPostsecularism. 615 0$aReligion. 676 $a200.9/04 686 $aBE 9020$2rvk 702 $aRectenwald$b Michael 702 $aAlmeida$b Rochelle 702 $aLevine$b George 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797783303321 996 $aGlobal secularisms in a post-secular age$93796822 997 $aUNINA
