Represents some of the best, cutting-edge thinking available on multiple forms of social upheaval and related grassroots movements. From the January 2017 Women's March to the August 2017 events in Charlottesville and the 2020 protests for racial justice in the wake of George Floyd's murder, social upheaval and protest have loomed large in the United States in recent years. The varied, sometimes conflicting role of religious believers, communities, and institutions in such events and movements calls for scholarly analysis. Arising from a conference held at the College of the Holy Cross in November 2017, Religion, Protest, and Social Upheaval gathers contributions from ten scholars in religious studies, theology and ethics, and gender studies--from seasoned experts to emerging voices--to illuminate this tumultuous era of history and the complex landscape of social action for economic, racial, political, and sexual and gender justice. The contributors consider the history of resistance to racial capitalist imperialism from W. E. B. Du Bois to today; the theological genealogy of the capitalist economic order, and Catholic theology's growing concern with climate change; affect theory and the rise of white nationalism, theological aesthetics, and solidarity with migrants; differing U.S. Christian churches' responses to the "revolutionary aesthetics" of the Black Lives Matter movement; Muslim migration and the postsecular character of Muslim labor organizing in the United States; shifts in moral reasoning and religiosity among U.S. women's movements from the 1960s to today; and the intersection of heresy discourse and struggles for LGBTQ+ equality among Korean and Korean-American Protestants. With this pluralistic approach, Religion, Protest, and Social Upheaval offers a snapshot of scholarly religious responses to the crises and promises of the late 2010s and early 2020s. Representing the diverse coalitions of the religious left, it provides groundbreaking analysis, charts trajectories for further study and action, and offers visions for a more hopeful future.

Western liberal societies are characterized by two stories: a positive story of freedom of conscience and the recognition of community and human rights, and a negative story of unrestrained freedom that leads to self-centeredness, vacuity, and the destructive compromise of human values. Can the Catholic Church play a more meaningful role in assisting liberal societies in telling their better story? Australian ethicist Robert Gascoigne thinks it can. In The Church and Secularity he considers the meaning of secularity as a shared space for all citizens and asks how the Church can contribute to a

Chrétiens et Sociétés XVIe-XXIe siècles, dont le premier numéro date de 1994, est une revue d’histoire des religions, centrée sur l’étude des différentes confessions chrétiennes à l’époque moderne et contemporaine, dans une conception ouverte, en dialogue constant avec les autres secteurs des sciences sociales. Créée sous l’égide du Centre André Latreille (Université Lyon 2) et de l’Institut d’Histoire du Christianisme (Université Lyon 3), elle est aujourd’hui animée par les chercheurs en histoire religieuse du Laboratoire de recherche historique Rhône-Alpes (UMR 5190 LARHRA). Alors que les premiers numéros rendaient surtout compte des activités des centres, au fil des années, le nombre des articles a augmenté et leurs auteurs se sont diversifiés. Aujourd’hui dotée d’un comité de lecture international, la revue alterne numéros thématiques et numéros de varia, tout en proposant également des dossiers d’étude sous la forme de numéros spéciaux.
