In this lecture - which you find as a transcript and an audio link below - I think together some of my fieldwork in Egypt, and a critical anthropology of secularism that has emerged in the past years. I argue that thinking about secularism
as a form of discursive power that promotes specific subjectivities can
provide a useful but partial understanding of various developments
regarding state power, faith, and imagination that are going on in a
God-fearing part of the world. Rather than trying to think them through
the somewhat mystifying entity of “the secular”, I suggest that they
may be understood in a clearer way as different shapes of the
relationship between humans and God. Some of these shapes correspond
with a binary model that juxtapose Islamic and secular-liberal
traditions as distinct, mutually external regimes; and some of them do
not. I propose to add to the theme of secularism a more complex
landscape of heresies and imaginative explorations that either unsettle a
tradition from within, or have different concerns altogether.
