Le religieux dans l'espace public
État, culture, société
Published on Monday, January 14, 2019
Abstract
The 8th international conference for postgraduate students in Religious Studies will be an opportunity to deepen the notion of public space. This notion has been used in quite a diverse way since J. Habermas defined it, included in Religious Studies (see C. Taylor, J. Casanova for example). This conference is open to all students and young researchers (master’s, PhD and post doctorate), in a multidisciplinary perspective (law, economics, history, geography, sociology, anthropology, urbanism, political science, literature ...).
