Negotiating Religion

This volume provides multiple perspectives on the processes through which religious communities create or defend their place in a given society, both in history and in our world today. Offering a critical, cross-disciplinary investigation into processes of negotiating religion and religious diversity, the contributors present new insights on the meaning and substance of negotiation itself. The focus on the European experiences that have shaped not only the history of ‘negotiating religion’ in this region but around the world provide new perspectives for critical inquiries into the way in which contemporary societies engage with religion.
