Nones: The Past, Present, and Future of Nonbelief in Canada
We were joined by Sarah Wilkins-Laflamme, an associate professor in the department of sociology and legal studies at the University of Waterloo and a co-founder of the Institute for Religion, Culture, and Societal Futures (IRCSF), in the summer of 2024 as a guest on our three-part podcast series Nones: The Past, Present, and Future of Nonbelief in Canada.
Her research explores social trends in religious identities and behaviours while emphasizing how different elements of religion shape the social attitudes and actions of individuals. It provides important knowledge that illuminates our understanding of North America’s changing social landscape and the growing shift towards secularism in Canada and the US. We’re pleased to share a list of her academic publications with you, which we know many of you will enjoy. The list is available on her University of Waterloo academic profile.
