Space sharing by groups and organizations is widespread in the
United States, from commercial partnerships, to government and
private sector joint use agreements, to the use of public
facilities and commons, and more. Drawing upon a variety of
historical examples and contemporary cases, The Religious
Dimensions of Shared Spaces offers a focused and systematic
analysis of space sharing involving religious groups or
organizations. All space-sharing arrangements are similar in most
respects, so what difference does it make when religious groups or
organizations are involved? How do they invest meaning in the
spaces they use and share, including "sacred space"? When and why
do they enter into space-sharing arrangements with other parties,
religious and/or secular? How do religious space sharers structure
and maintain their arrangements, including handling tensions that
arise? What can secular space sharers learn from their religious
counterparts, and vice versa? The book also teases out when
religion does not matter in space sharing, even when religious
groups or organizations are involved. Case studies include internal
congregational groups that negotiate the use of shared facilities,
arrangements between congregations and external groups or
organizations, multifaith partnerships, and shared spaces in
secular venues.
