Sinopsis

A Kapunda Press Title.'this important book examines the implicationsáof significant societal changes for the vitality of civil society'PETER KURTIWhat is the future of democracy in a religious world?áOver the next fifty years, Australia is predicted to become a less religious country, while the world at large will become more religious.áThis raises questions about what kind of society Australia will be as theápositive and negative influences of religion fade, and liberalism anddemocracy struggle to adapt to a changing world.áIt also raises challenges for AustraliaâÇÖs democratic leaders, who might struggle to comprehend the needs of the minority of religious Australians, and to balance these with the demands of the non-religious majority. In FaithâÇÖs Place, eight essayists, including the Liberal PartyâÇÖs Dean Smith and the Labor PartyâÇÖs Luke Gosling, respond to Bryan Turner and Damien FreemanâÇÖs critical assessments of the challenges for democracy and religion in Australia.The collection offers a number of Australian and international perspectivesáon what it means for democracy and religion to flourish in Australian society and politics today.
