Shall The Religious Inherit The Earth? by Eric P. Kaufmann

Demography and Politics in the Twenty-First Century

The book explores the demographic trends and cultural shifts that suggest religious groups, particularly those with high birth rates and strong retention of members, are set to play an increasingly influential role in the future global landscape. It examines how secular societies may face challenges as religious populations grow, potentially altering political and social dynamics. The author delves into the implications of this shift, considering how it might affect issues such as governance, cultural identity, and the balance between secular and religious values in various regions around the world.
