Das Verhältnis zwischen Öffentlichkeit und Religion ist einer der großen Klassiker der Geistesgeschichte, der bis heute nichts von seiner Bedeutung eingebüßt hat. Mit großer Regelmäßigkeit rekurrieren Soziologen und Politikwissenschaftler auf eine Rückkehr der Religionen in den öffentlichen Raum. Im Zuge von Säkularisierung, Globalisierung und Digitalisierung stehen moderne Öffentlichkeiten und Religionen in einem stetig komplexeren Netz wechselseitiger Transformation. Einen besonderen Kristallisationspunkt dieses intensiven Wechselverhältnisses bilden die beiden großen Schlüsselthemen öffentliche Bildung und universitäre Forschung. Die im vorliegenden Band versammelten Beiträge beleuchten schlaglichtartig einige ausgewählte Aspekte in diesem weiten Feld vom Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts bis in die Gegenwart.

"Britain and Spain led the two greatest Empires of the modern era, with perhaps the most important legacy that their two languages are amongst the most widely spoken in the modern world. Yet the relationship between these two cultural giants has not always been straightforward. The founding of the British-Spanish Society has its origins in 1916 as the Anglo-Spanish Society, which was founded during the First World War by a group of British academics, students and businessmen. It was a means of reaching out in social, cultural and trade friendship with their Spanish counterparts at a time when Spain's official neutrality seemed to be edging closer towards Germany. It was subsequently known as the Anglo-Spanish League of Friendship, and finally the British-Spanish Society, its members continued to promote these objectives after that particular war had come to an end. Much has changed since then, with an ever-shifting political and diplomatic environment affecting the relations between Britain and Spain, but throughout this the core values of the Society have remained constant. This fascinating book tells the story of an organisation at the heart of the relationship between two of Europe's major powers. It will be compulsory reading for those interested in the process of 'soft diplomacy' but above all for those interested in the relationship between Spain and Britain."--Back cover
