Description

This book reflects the wide-spread belief that the twenty-first century is evolving in a significantly different way to the twentieth, whichย witnessed the advance of human rationality and technological progress, including urbanisation, and called into question the public and cultural significance of religion. In this century, by contrast, religion, faith communities and spiritual values have returned to the centre of public life, especially public policy, governance, and social identity. Rapidly diversifying urban locations are the best places to witness the emergence of new spaces in which religions and spiritual traditions are creating both new alliances but also bifurcations with secular sectors.ย Postsecular Citiesย examines how the built environment reflects these trends.ย Recognizing that theย 'turn to the postsecular' is a contested and multifaceted trend,ย the authorsย offer a vigorous, open but structured dialogue between theory and practice, but even more excitingly, between the disciplines of human geography and theology. Both disciplines reflect on this powerful but enigmatic force shaping our urban humanity. This uniqueย volumeย offers the first insight into these interdisciplinary and challenging debates.
