Much attention in recent publications on religion is focused on fundamentalism and the 'religious right wing'. Less attention is given to their counterpart: a new generation of progressive religious thinkers and organizations, the 'religious left wing'.
"The New Spirituality" is one of the first books to offer a comprehensive and authoritative overview of this emerging progressive religious movement. The book clearly analyzes the cultural roots, key ideas, and organizational forms of this new faith.
The author Gordon Lynch discusses how this movement:
- reveres the natural world,
- connects religion with new scientific theories,
- and pursues a future-oriented societal transformation.
Suitable for anyone who wants to gain insight into the changing morals and religious relations in Western society of the twenty-first century.
Language and level: English, suitable for advanced readers (C1-C2).
Application: education, self-study, and research into modern religious movements.
