Il postsecular turn: politica, religione e società oltre la secolarizzazione?

The debate over the concept of ‘postsecular’ has grown in the last decades gathering both supporters and critics. Originated from the formulation made by Jürgen Habermas, the ‘postsecular turn’ became one of the most successful concepts in the long history of the theory of secularization. Many contemporary analysis of the role of religion in society and politics can be read in the postsecular frame. The aim of this paper is to sum up different aspects and formulations of ‘postsecular’ and show the potential of this approach for understanding contemporary relationships between society, religion and politics.
