The Politics and Practice of Religious Diversity engages with one
of the most characteristic features of modern society. An
increasingly prominent and potentially contentious phenomenon,
religious diversity is intimately associated with contemporary
issues such as migration, human rights, social cohesion,
socio-cultural pluralisation, political jurisdiction,
globalisation, and reactionary belief systems. This edited
collection of specially-commissioned chapters provides an
unrivalled geographical coverage and multidisciplinary treatment of
the socio-political processes and institutional practices provoked
by, and associated with, religious diversity. Alongside chapters
treating religious diversity in the 'BRIC' countries of Brazil,
Russia, India and China, are contributions which discuss Australia,
Finland, Mexico, South Africa, the UK, and the United States. This
book provides an accessible, distinctive and timely treatment of a
topic which is inextricably linked with modern society's
progressively diverse and global trajectory. Written and structured
as an accessible volume for the student reader, this book is of
immediate interest to both academics and laypersons working in
mainstream and political sociology, sociology of religion, human
geography, politics, area studies, migration studies and religious
studies.
