- Title
Postsecular Jewish Theology: Reading Gordon And Buber.
- Authors
Lahav, Hagar
- Abstract
Considerable scholarly research has been conducted in an attempt to determine whether A. D. Gordon and Martin Buber are to be categorized as religious or secular philosophers. This study seeks to characterize them as postsecular theologians who propound a hybrid theology, rejecting traditional religion on the one hand and atheism on the other. Opening with presentation of the postsecular approach that developed in the social sciences in recent years, with emphasis on secular spaces in Israel, this interdisciplinary study proceeds to a postsecular reading of Buber's and Gordon's works, proposing that such a reading reveals the possible relevancy of their works to present postsecular discourses in Israel.
