NOTE: Series number is not an integer: III Rethinking Secularization challenges the theme that modernity has led to secularization. Drawing on 16 case studies of the Reformed community around the globe, this volume shows that religious vitality at the personal level is often evident in the face of secularization on the national or denominational level.
A much-needed international comparison of the fate of the Dutch Reformed diaspora in dealing with (and mostly compromising with) modernity. The sustained focus on Peter Berger's terms for dealing with modernity ties the quite disparate essays together. -- Beau Weston, Centre College
