Since the turn of the millennium, European societies have been
shaken by the re-emergence of religion as a contested factor in
public life. Using approaches from sociology, media and religious
studies, David Herbert compares recent public controversies
involving or implicating religion in the UK (England and Northern
Ireland), the Netherlands and France. Has there been a return of
public religion? Is self-segregation the cause of community
tensions and what is the role of the media in shaping public
attitudes to religion? He argues that the declining importance of
religion for the majority of European, s compared with its ongoing
and adapting importance for some from minority and immigrant
populations, calls for careful policy responses. Religion can and
already has been exploited to produce social polarization,
especially in the presence of negative and stereotyped media
representations.
