Description
"This volume brings together a selection of readings which illustrate and analyse religion's encounters with the forces of modernization - including nationalism, capitalism, colonialism, democracy, gender and identity politics." "Drawing on scholarly analysis, empirical research and concrete examples, the book offers a picture of a religious world which is increasingly characterized by the coexistence of: old faiths and new spiritualities, a turn to tradition and a turn to experience, decline and revival, privatization and political militancy, tolerance and intolerance." "Religion in Modern Times offers a new framework and language for making sense of religion today."--Jacket.
