The Sacred Is the Profane : The Political Nature of 'Religion'
Bok av William E. Arnal
The Sacred is the Profane collects nine essays by William Arnal and Russell McCutcheon that advance current scholarly debates on secularism-debates. The essays return, again and again, to the question of what "religion"word and conceptaccomplishes, now, for those who employ it, whether at the popular, political, or scholarly level. The focus here is on the efficacy, costs, and the tactical work carried out by dividing the world between religious and
political, church and state, sacred and profane.
