Religious Education in a Post-Secular Age
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
9783030475024 (ISBN)
This book analyzes the changes and shifts in religious education in Europe over the past 50 years. In a post-secular age, it has become increasingly difficult to make sharp distinctions between what is religious and non-religious, confessional and non-confessional. Reforms in religious education in Sweden in the 1960s appeared as part of a process of wider secular liberalization, giving more credence to the idea of absolute neutrality in religious education. However drastic shifts in society, culture and the European religious landscape raise the need for a reevaluation of the foundations of religious education. Drawing on a range of case studies from across Europe, this book will appeal to students and scholars of religious education as well as post-secular education more generally.
Olof Franck is Associate Professor at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. Peder Thalen is Professor at the University of Gavle, Sweden.
