Between a Rock and a Hard Place

More about the book

The book explores the evolving landscape of public theology amidst significant political and cultural changes in Western society. Elaine Graham, a prominent theologian, argues that traditional sociological theories and public theology are being challenged by both ongoing religious decline and a notable revival in religious engagement within public life and politics. This calls for a reassessment of the secularization thesis and Western liberal political theory, which have historically maintained a separation between religion and the public sphere.
