Abstract
GARZON VALLEJO, Iván. Post-secularity: A New Paradigm of the Social Sciences?. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2014, n.50, pp.101-112. ISSN 0123-885X.
The theory of secularization was the hermeneutical paradigm of the process in which modern western societies witnessed the eclipse of religion in public life. In recent years, a significant amount of literature in the Social Sciences has been warning of the crisis of this paradigm and the need to revise it. In this context, the notion of post-secularity appears as a likely candidate to become the new paradigm of the tensions between religion and the secular in today's world, with the promise of building bridges between religious rationality and secular rationality.
Keywords : Secularization; post-secularity; paradigm; modernity; religion.
