Description
Critical Religion Reader presents 26 short articles that explore various aspects of religion from different perspectives. These contributions share a common approach to understanding the concept of 'religion', examining its complexities and consequences in contemporary society. The authors of Critical Religion seek to illuminate the uses of the term 'religion' and reflect on its implications, particularly in relation to how communities and practices are labelled as either 'religious' or 'non-religious'. This volume offers a critical perspective on the concept of religion, considering its historical development and the ways in which it has been shaped by Enlightenment thinking. By examining the complexities of the term 'religion', this collection provides insight into ongoing debates in Religious Studies and highlights the need to re-examine our understanding of this concept.
