Abstract
AbstractIt is not entirely clear what is meant by postsecularism. As a relatively new concept in political thought, it is still in the process of being formulated. Neverthless, postsecularism can be described as a broad concept referring to a constellation of positions that rethink secularism by responding to a version of the “secularization thesis.” Usually attributed to Max Weber, this thesis suggests the progressive privatization and decline of religion under the forces of modernization. The commitment to re‐examine this conception of secularism comes from a recognition that contemporary society is in some sense “postsecular,” in other words it is a society in which religion is neither in retreat nor in decline but persists in political discourse and practice.
