José Casanova (Georgetown University) is one of the top scholars in the sociology of religion. His book "Public religions in the modern world" became a modern classic in the study of religion and politics. In this widely renowned book, he reevaluates the theory of secularization in light of the global resurgence of religion, focusing on the phenomenon of "deprivatization", or religious re-engagement in the public sphere.
