Event overview
The last ten years has seen a reawakening to religion and its public role. The AHRC and ESRC funded Religion and Society programme especially has revealed a complex religious and nonreligious landscape in terms of the nature, manifestation and influence of belief.
Religion and belief are now widely recognised in the public sphere, but not fully comprehended in terms of politics, policy and practice. These spheres are still framed by an older, secular context, which now seems unsuitable.
We now have a much better idea of the religious and nonreligious landscape. The question is how to move forwards, knowing what we do.
By exploring this question, Sacred and Secular: Politics, Policy and Practice, seeks to highlight the multidisciplinary array of research already underway at Goldsmiths. It intends to build relationships with key academics internationally, around the UK and researchers at Goldsmiths, as well as strengthening internal links between departments at Goldsmiths itself.
