Synopsis

Over the last three decades, religious practices and belongings have gained increased visibility across the globe, turning secularity and its relationship with religion into subjects of intense interdisciplinary and international debate. Previously marginalized in gender studies, the secular and the religious now attract growing interest in academic and activist feminism, prompting a critical reflection on secularity's emancipatory potential. This publication aims to foster this interest by providing a platform for interdisciplinary and transregional discussions on the complex dynamics of secularity, religiosity, and gender, as well as new approaches to explore these relationships. The contributions examine the entanglements and boundaries of religions and secularities in everyday life, art, culture, and knowledge production. By presenting relevant case studies, this book underscores an understanding of religion as both a category of knowledge and a marker of identity. Texts by Sophia Rose Arjana, Mariecke van den Berg, Nella van den Brandt, Sabine Grenz, Doris Guth, Konstanze Hanitzsch, Eline Huygens, Maki Kimura, Kim Knibbe, Susanne Lanwerd, Mia Liinason, Elke Pahud de Mortanges, Olga Sasunkevich.
