Navigating Post-Truth and Alternative Facts: Religion and Science
as Political Theology is an edited volume that explores the
critical intersection of "religion-and-science" and our
contemporary political and social landscape with a tailored eye
towards the epistemological and hermeneutical impact of the
"post-truth society." The rise of the post-truth society has
specific importance and inherent risk for nearly all academic
disciplines and researchers. When personal beliefs regarding
climate change trump scientific consensus, research projects are
defunded, results are hidden or undermined, and all of us are at a
greater vulnerability to extreme weather patterns. When expertise
itself becomes suspect, we become a nation lead by fools. When data
is overcome by alternative facts and truth in any form is suspect,
where is the space for religious and/or scientific scholarship? The
central curiosity of this volume is "what is the role of religion
and science scholarship in a post-truth society?" This text
explores truth, lies, fear, populism, politics, faith, the
environment, post modernity, and our shared public life.
