Abstract

The concept of globalization embraces multiple trends of increasing interconnection and conflict that also affect religions and their ongoing secularizing and disintermediating transformations. Tensions between public and religious norms are increasingly manipulated by populist actors that exploit the imaginaries of religious traditions at the expense of their internal justificatory resources. This move has serious anti-pluralistic implications for both political institutions and religious communities.
