Abstract

This chapter introduces and employs the concept of dynamic diversity to move beyond the prevailing analytical frame of much contemporary literature that addresses the recent emergence of what is most commonly termed a “new religious diversity” or “new religious pluralism”. The concept of dynamic diversity advances contemporary thinking about religion in two key respects. First, it conceptualizes the religious diversification unfolding in more and more parts of the world as neither random nor regionally idiosyncratic but patterned by transnational processes and border-transcending forces that are typically modern in character. Second, and allied with its use of global-modernity, the notion of dynamic diversity corrects the disproportionate focus upon and undue explanatory weight given to transnational migration by the new diversity paradigm. Such is achieved because the concept of dynamic diversity affords appropriate analytical attention to the cumulatively diversifying effects of global-modernity’s transformative, differentiated, individualizing, worldwide, and increasingly market-oriented character. This chapter explicates the dynamically diversifying impact of these global-modern processes through reference to migration (domestic and transnational), detraditionalization and religious mobilization to conclude that the appearance, consolidation and spread of dynamic diversity is as inevitable as any socio-cultural process can be.
