This book is the summation of many decades of work by Peter L.
Berger, an internationally renowned sociologist of religion.
Secularization theory-which saw modernity as leading to a decline
of religion-has been empirically falsified. It should be replaced
by a nuanced theory of pluralism. In this new book, Berger outlines
the possible foundations for such a theory, addressing a wide range
of issues spanning individual faith, interreligious societies, and
the political order. He proposes a conversation around a new
paradigm for religion and pluralism in an age of multiple
modernities. The book also includes responses from three eminent
scholars of religion:Nancy Ammerman, Detlef Pollack, and Fenggang
Yang.
