Des acteurs confessionnels agissent depuis plusieurs années dans le domaine du développement. Quel statut et quel rôle s'attribuent ces ONG confessionnelles dans les politiques de développement et celles-ci sont-elles le seul objet d'intervention des Acteurs Confessionnels ou peuvent-elles porter d'autres visées ? La dimension religieuse est-elle prioritaire ou mineure dans les activités des ONG ? Cet ouvrage étudie les différences sensibles entre ces organisations dans leurs objectifs respectifs et dans leurs modes d'intervention.

Souvent contestées et affaiblies, les religions, y compris celles qui se reconnaissent comme descendance d'Abraham, sont toujours présentes et souvent vivantes dans les sociétés d'aujourd'hui. Marquées par une longue histoire, elles cherchent à s'adapter aux mutations culturelles et sociétales de notre époque, tout en s'efforçant de rester fidèles au message originel, transmis, pour les religions abrahamiques, par la Bible ou le Coran. Le présent livre évoque d'une part les particularités des trois confessions chrétiennes, ainsi que du judaïsme et de l'islam, dans leurs doctrines et leurs pratiques, en faisant place aussi à leur insertion dans la vie sociale et culturelle. Il traite d'autre part des dialogues menés à l'intérieur du christianisme, et des relations interreligieuses entre les chrétiens, les juifs et les musulmans, pour mettre en évidence ce qui les rapproche dans leurs textes fondateurs et leur histoire. Même si elles sont confrontées aujourd'hui aux défis de la modernité et de la postmodernité, ou encore à ceux de la sécularisation, elles proposent un chemin jalonné par une foi en Dieu, un vécu, des fêtes et des engagements éthiques

Religion has long played a central role in many social and political movements. Solidarity in Poland, anti-apartheid in South Africa, Operation Rescue in the United States--each of these movements is driven by the energy and sustained by the commitment of many individuals and organizations whose ideologies are shaped and powered by religious faith. In many cases, religious resources and motives serve as crucial variables explaining the emergence of entire social movements. This book analyzes contemporary social movements which are driven by people and organizations of faith. The essays also address many theoretical issues arising in the study of social movements and disruptive politics.

"Religion in Rebellions, Revolutions, and Social Movements demonstrates that, while religion is often a social force that maintains, if not legitimates, the socio-political order, it is also a decisive factor in economic, social, and political conflict. The book explores how and under what conditions religion functions as a progressive and/or reactionary force that compels people to challenge or protect social orders. The authors focus on the role that religion has played in peasant, slave, and plebeian rebellions; revolutions including the Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Iranian; and modern social movements. In addition to these case studies, the book also contains theoretical chapters which explore the relationship religious thought has with the politics of liberation and oppression. It examines the institutional, organizational, ritualistic, discursive, ideological, and/or framing mechanisms that give religion its oppressive and liberating structures. Many scholars of religion continue very conventional modes of thinking, ignoring how religion has been-and continues to be-both a hegemonic and counter-hegemonic force in conflict. This book looks at both sides of the equation. This international and interdisciplinary volume will interest students and scholars in the fields of politics of religion, sociology of religion, religious studies, gender studies, and history"--
