Les traditions religieuses face à la crise du système libéral : Le cas de l’islam (Milan, 9 Octobre 2019)
Ce colloque est une activité du groupe de recherche thématique de Pluriel basé à Milan : Pour une dé-radicalisation préventive. La reconfiguration des humanités dans une approche inter-religieuse. (Coordination : Paolo Branca et Marco Demichelis)
ABSTRACT (English)
Religions have regained a considerable role in the public space, to an extent that was hardly imaginable until recently. With the beginning of the century, religiosity seems to consist in the flourishing of beliefs and belongings – however, this occurs in the context of secularized societies, with the risk of ephemeral ‘DIY (do it yourself)’ and unscrupulous spirituality borrowing “updated” symbols from traditional beliefs, for purposes that often do not relate to the experience of a ‘genuine’ religiosity.
The emptiness that has arisen with the crisis of the great secular ideologies of the last century cannot be filled by a trivializing appeal to religious-racial identities often results in an increasingly widespread and worrisome religious illiteracy as well as it in ‘politicization’.
Understanding these dynamics does not only means describing and analyzing them, but involves the delicate task of imagining possible strategies to channel useful energies in initiatives aimed at countering problematic deviances.
