Abstract

GARZON VALLEJO, Iván. What do We Talk About When We Talk About the Return of Religion?. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2016, vol.65, n.162, pp.71-85. ISSN 0120-0062.  https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v65n162.47357.

The so-called "return of religion" can be interpreted as a new fact, as a factual pretext or as an amendment. This article shows that it is not a new fact -for it was a political problem for philosophy throughout the 20th century- nor a factual pretext. It consists on an implicit repentance from the political theory for assuming secularism and positivism as both epistemological and normative frameworks. Furthermore, this concept takes us to reformulate the secularist utopia and the postsecularism emergence.

Keywords : positivism; religion; secularism.
