Écologie, religions et spiritualités : des conflits socio-environnementaux aux enjeux cosmopolitiques
Ecology, religions and spiritualities: from socio-environmental conflicts to cosmopolitics
Veröffentlicht am jeudi, 15. décembre 2016
Zusammenfassung
Cette session a pour but de réfléchir, à partir d’une socio-anthropologie et d’une philosophie politique de la religion, sur le lien entre écologie et religieux tels qu’ils ont déjà été abordés dans Religion et écologie (Hervieu-Leger, 1993) ou Nature et religions (Bertina, Carnac, Fauches et Gervais, 2013). Il s’agit d’analyser le lien affinitaire existant entre écologie et religieux en insistant sur la dimension politique, et plus précisément conflictuelle de cette rencontre guidée par des intérêts ou des représentations.
Inserat
In the framework of the upcoming conference of the International Society for the Sociology of Religion (ISSR) that will be held in Lausanne, Switzerland from 4 to 7 July 2017, a session will be held.
Argument
This session aspires to discuss, from a socio-anthropology and a political philosophy of religion, the link between ecology and religion as they have already been addressed in Religion et écologie (Hervieu-Leger, 1993) and Nature et religions (Bertina, Carnac, Fauches et Gervais, 2013). It aims at analysing the relationship between ecology and religion, emphasizing the political dimension, and more specifically the conflictual one, of this encounter guided by divergent interests or representations.
This religious entry – a generic category in order to embrace the plurality of its contemporary forms: beliefs, religious practices, rituals but also institutionalized religions, spiritualities - can address the conflicts and controversies across a wide spectrum. Indeed, the religious elements can generate, amplify, accompany or partially solve social conflicts (Habermas, Ratzinger, 2008; Willaime, 2006 Sheet-Léger and Porter, 2006), scientific and technical controversies (Callon, Lascoumes, Barthes, 2001) or differences of "worldviews" (Lynn White, 1967; Passmore, 1973 Grim, Tucker, 2013), and possibly contribute in this way to promote an ethical approach in public debate. The purpose of this session is therefore 1) to evaluate the consequences of "ethicisation" of environmental issues that occurs from the convergence of ecology and religion.
The notion of conflict is not univocal (Marx, Horkheimer, Bourdieu, etc.). This session will opt for a broader definition to understand it as a producer of social change (Simmel), which will allow the overtaking of categories such as "civil society", "public space" (Habermas) or “cosmopolitan vision” (Beck) and “cosmopolitics” (Stengers). It will then 2) identify the forms of actualisation of cosmologies and power relations behind the different compositions that are established between ecology and religion, forms that fit within a broader political spectrum, from the anarchist and libertarian extreme left to far right trends naturalizing regional identities. It is therefore around a reflection on the mechanisms of social change that will lead the entry offered by the meeting of ecology and religion.
