Religion et conservatisme
Explorations theologiques d'une connivence annoncee
edited by R. Mager
English summary: Society often considers that there is a direct relation between religion and conservatism, that to be religious implies an attachment to ideals and values of the past. But this idea fits poorly with the plurality of progressive religious movements, religious innovation, the dynamic politics of conservatism, and the complex interchange between Islam and modernity. The present study explores these relations between religion and conservatism. French description: Pour la plupart de nos contemporains, il existe des liens etroits, voire une connivence profonde entre la religion et le conservatisme. L’idee communement recue veut qu’etre religieux implique un attachement aux ideaux, aux moeurs et aux institutions du passe. Mais cette idee s’avere un peu courte quand il s’agit de rendre compte d’une variete de phenomenes qui discordent avec elle: la pluralite des courants religieux progressistes, l’innovation religieuse, la vigueur politique des conservatismes, la complexite des transactions entre islam et modernite. Si la connivence entre religion et conservatisme demeure plausible, elle ne va pas de soi et exige ainsi d’etre pensee. Issu des travaux de la Sodiete canadienne de theologie, ce recueil d’etudes croise une diversite de points de vue disciplinaires et de perspectives pour mieux comprendre les rapports entre religion et conservatisme.
