Abstract :In this article, postmodernization of religion is analyzed as a part of individualization and alienation in the context of `cultural reification` process. Within a general philosophical framework, defining what `postmodernization of religion` means, two specific social phenomena are brought under the focus. On the one hand, the article takes up the `crisis` of modernity with special reference to secularization and subjectivation that has undermined the universal column of modernity and legitimized the personal arrangements of social life. On the other hand a philosophical deliberation about Christianity between two preeminent philosophers of the present age insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Rorty and Vattimo); is examined in the hope that it sheds light upon the issue in the debate about Islam in Turkey.
Keywords : Postmodernization of religion, the `crisis` of modernity, secularization, subjectivation, Rorty, Vattimo, civic responsibility, spiritual responsibility
