It responds to a pressing and urgent need in our society, namely the need to bring together diverse religious ways of thinking and being in the world and ultimately to transform our society through intentional pluralism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary objective of Critical Religious Pluralism Theory (CRPT) is to recognize the pivotal roles of religious privilege, oppression, hegemony, and marginalization in perpetuating inequality between Christians and non-Christians (including the nonreligious) in the United States. Through a comprehensive analysis of existing literature on religious, secular, and spiritual identities within higher education, as well as a detailed exploration of critical theories on other identity elements, the text presents seven tenets of CRPT alongside seven practical guidelines for utilizing the theory to combat the very inequalities it exposes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the first time, a critical theory will directly address the social impacts of religious diversity and its inherent benefits and complexities in the United States. Critical Religious Pluralism in Higher Education will appeal to scholars, researchers, and graduate students in higher education, as well as critical theorists from other disciplines.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, this text offers a transformative framework for understanding and addressing religious diversity, Christian religious privilege, and Christian hegemony in the United States. By recognizing the power of religious privilege and oppression, and by promoting intentional pluralism, we can work towards creating a more just and equitable society for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 144g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 138 x 216 x 12 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367491505\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jenny L.Small","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44103697891578,"sku":"9780367491505","price":19.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646365122601_book.jpg?v=1646981767","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/critical-religious-pluralism-in-higher-education-a-social-justice-framework-to-support-religious-diversity-9780367491505","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
