Description
Summary:This collection, Mapping Religion and Spirituality in a Postsecular World, contributes to recent scholarship on religion, spirituality, and secularity. In the introduction, the editors, Giuseppe Giordan and Enzo Pace, argue that processes of globalization and modernization have given rise to a new cultural framework—characterized by individualization, pluralism, and the deterritorialization of belonging—which has allowed for and fostered the development of new forms of religious discourse and practice. In this context, the boundaries between the sacred and profane, the religious and the secular as well as between institutional religion and subjective spirituality are being continuously negotiated and redefined.
