This book acts as a bridge between the critical study of 'religion'
and empirical studies of 'religion in the real world'. Chris Cotter
presents a concise and up-to-date critical survey of research on
non-religion in the UK and beyond, before presenting the results of
extensive research in Edinburgh's Southside which blurs the
boundary between 'religion' and 'non-religion'. In doing so, Cotter
demonstrates that these are dynamic subject positions, and
phenomena can occupy both at the same time, or neither, depending
on who is doing the positioning, and what issues are at stake. This
book details an approach that avoids constructing 'religion' as in
some way unique, whilst also fully incorporating 'non-religious'
subject positions into religious studies. It provides a rich
engagement with a wide variety of theoretical material, rooted in
empirical data, which will be essential reading for those
interested in critical, sociological and anthropological study of
the contemporary non-/religious landscape.
