Phenomenology and the Post-Secular Turn

Contemporary Debates on the 'Return of Religion'

Herausgeber: Staudigl, Michael; Alvis, Jason W.

Beschreibung

Are we living in a 'post-secular age', and can phenomenology help us better understand the discontents of secularism and the supposed 'return of religion'? The contributions within this volume employ phenomenology to furnish deeper reflection upon the roles religion plays-beyond a primarily individualist conception-in our social orders and imaginaries. This book was originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of Philosophical Studies.
