| Summary: | Making sense of secularity and irreligion, and the relationship between them has emerged as a crucial task for those seeking to understand contemporary societies and the nature of 'modern' life. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in southeast England, this volume develops a new vocabulary, theory, and methodology for thinking about the secular. It distinguishes between separate and incommensurable aspects of so-called secularity, as insubstantial and substantial. |
