Abstract

789
«New atheism» has strongly emerged since the beginning of the century. After examining its main distinctive characteristics and the context in which it has arisen, this paper analyzes the main works and authors that support new atheism. It also critically analyzes its principal arguments, focusing on its political purpose, which is to promote an exclusive secularism. Finally, this work presents the most important challenges for believers. In the world after 11-S, we must find a common space in which secular and religious people can collaborate.
