Synopsis of Holy Ignorance: When Religion and Culture Part Ways

En 'Holy Ignorance: When Religion and Culture Part Ways', Olivier Roy explora la desconexión moderna entre las comunidades de fe y las identidades socioculturales, argumentando que esta separación crea un terreno fértil para el fundamentalismo. Roy desafía la idea de que la secularización libera al mundo de la religión, sugiriendo en cambio que ha fomentado una 'ignorancia sagrada' que se opone a la cultura contemporánea. El libro examina cómo las religiones fundamentalistas reconectan a sus seguidores con la cultura a través de referentes casuales o rituales de purificación, y analiza las opciones disponibles para integrar o controlar a estos grupos, planteando si la marginación o la homogeneización profundizarán la división entre los creyentes y su cultura.

Olivier Roy

Olivier Roy

Olivier Roy is a French political scientist and a professor at the European University Institute in Florence, Italy. He has published articles and books on secularization and Islam including "Global Islam" and The Failure of Political Islam. He is known to have "a different view of radical Islam" than some other experts. He sees it as peripheral, Westernized and part of a radicalized and "virtual" rather than a pious and "actual" Muslim community. His most recent writings are about the Charlie Hebdo shooting and the November 2015 Paris attacks.
