World Religions

The relevance of religion and the sacred in the global affairs of the twenty-second century is the subject of an ongoing debate. Most scholars however agree that the influence of this factor has significantly changed in the past century: both as a consequence of the phenomenon known as “convergence” between the major “traditional” faiths, as a consequence of the ongoing secularization process; and because of the association of different ideas of religiosity with the cleavage between Technoutopian and Neogaian perspectives.
