Religion is back again in Europe after never having been gone.
It is manifest in the revival of religious institutions and
traditions in former communist countries, in political
controversies about the relationship between the church(es) and the
state and about the freedom of religion and the freedom to
criticize religion, and in public unease about religious
minorities. This book is about religion and civil society in
Europe. It moves from general theoretical and normative approaches
of this relationship, via the examination of national patterns of
religion-state relations, to in-depth analyses of the impact of
religion and secularization on the values, pro-social attitudes and
civic engagement of individuals. It covers Europe from the Lutheran
North to the Catholic South, and from the secularized West to the
Orthodox East and Islamic South-East with comparative analyses and
country studies, concluding with an overall Europe-USA
comparison.
