- This monograph is the outcome of an extended and intellectually ambitious research project that developed new analytic categories for understanding ‘non-religion’ and demonstrated their relevance for shaping future research agenda. The project also engaged with and substantially advanced the discussion of methodological approaches to the study of non-religion and the secular. Central arguments were based on a critical analysis of the use of terms such as ‘secular’ in literature across several disciplines and a substantial and pioneering piece of qualitative research participant observation of group activities and in-depth interviews with more than forty nonreligious participants.
