SECULARIZATION AND POSTMODERNITY AS INCENTIVES FOR THE CONSUMPTION OF PSEUDO-SPIRITUALITY
SECULARIZATION AND POSTMODERNITY AS INCENTIVES FOR THE CONSUMPTION OF PSEUDO-SPIRITUALITY

Summary/Abstract: Society in the twentieth century, and by extension in the twenty-first century, has undergone a series of social, cultural and religious metamorphoses, which have also led to new approaches to religion itself. The new forms of religiosity are identified more with new forms of exploring spirituality than with traditional, established religion. This liberalization or democratization of the sacred, if we may put it this way, is centered on the self, on self-realization. The present study aims to explore how secularization and the frameworks of postmodernity have intensified a psycho-market of the consumption of spiritualities of the self.
