En savoir plus sur le livre
This volume explores religion from a trans-cultural and international perspective, aiming to uncover new ways for religions to coexist peacefully in 21st-century societies and contribute to global pacification. It raises critical questions about whether a religion can accept the presence of others without sacrificing its own truth claims and what inherent characteristics would need to be emphasized. Alternatively, it considers if secular culture can promote a shared ideal of peaceful coexistence among diverse religions. The essays examine the socio-political implications of religions across Asian, African, Latin American, and European contexts, reflecting on the complex interplay between society, state, and religion. One analysis discusses a secular state engaging in dialogue with Muslim communities through a moderated communication platform, while another highlights the political influence of Christian churches in Nigeria through political advertising. Additionally, the collection addresses various concepts of religion in Western societies, with one essay asserting that democratic states must ensure religious freedom to foster peaceful coexistence among all faiths.
