Since 9/11 Jurgen Habermas has paid considerable attention to religion in the public sphere. He has described contemporary Western societies as 'post-secular', arguing that believers and non-believers should show a mutually cooperative attitude and engage in complementary learning processes. Although public theologians have urged for policies that would encourage such collaboration, public administration scholars and practitioners seem to have completely neglected this call. In this article we inquire into the possibility of a 'post-secular public administration', which grants a more significant place to beneficial forms of religion in modern societies. By presenting a case study on Street Pastors in the British night-time economy we offer an example of both a post-secular religious contribution to the public sphere, as envisaged by Habermas, and a piece of post-secular empirical social science research. Finally, we critically assess Habermas' post-secular turn within the context of a cross-narrative between public theology and public administration.

公共神学和公共行政相遇的地方

自 9/11 以来,尤尔根·哈贝马斯 (Jurgen Habermas) 对公共领域的宗教给予了相当大的关注。他将当代西方社会描述为“后世俗”,认为信徒和非信徒应该表现出相互合作的态度并参与互补的学习过程。尽管公共神学家呼吁制定鼓励这种合作的政策,但公共行政学者和实践者似乎完全忽视了这一呼吁。在本文中,我们探讨了“后世俗公共行政”的可能性,它为现代社会中有益的宗教形式提供了更重要的地位。通过介绍英国夜间经济中街头牧师的案例研究,我们提供了一个例子,说明后世俗宗教对公共领域的贡献,正如哈贝马斯所设想的那样,以及一项后世俗实证社会科学研究。最后,我们在公共神学和公共行政之间的交叉叙述的背景下批判性地评估了哈贝马斯的后世俗转向。
