Comparative Secularization
The anthropology of contemporary individualism
Des scénarios de la sécularisation mettent en branle des compréhensions partagées de la personne et donc de l'individualisme. Des études empiriques des bouleversements de la constitution sociale de la personne permettent de développer une anthropologie de la modernité distincte de l'idéologie dominante des droits universels de l'homme.
Scenarios describing secularization set in motion diverse understandings of personhood and hence of individualism. Empirical studies of the changing understanding of the social constituents of the person have the potential of promoting an anthropology of modernity distinct from the dominant ideology of basic human rights.
