ABSTRACT
Eminent philosopher Charles Taylor and sociologist Craig Calhoun discuss the place of faith today. We live in an era in which, rather than being organised around any single faith, individuals and communities pursue, or constantly seek, their own directions. Today there is no automatic belonging or single truth for all; you have to work out for yourself whether and in what shape you want to belong. How can we define, categorise, and explain this condition; what kind of coexistence does a diverse world demand, and what new ways of living does it stimulate?
