The end of secularization? Charles Taylorr and Marcel Gauchet on the significance of the religious in a secularized world.

The confrontation between Gauchet and Taylor starts from the following research question : what is the cultural and social relevance and significance of the religious in the secular world? The aim of this question is to make explicit the tension which currently occurs between the religious experience which is circumscribed in terms of the sacred, the godlike and the transcendent on the one hand and the advancing process of secularisation on the other
