This feature gives multiple layers and combinations of richness, hybridity, complexity and fluidity to its landscape of religious communities, orientations and interactions. This book provides an overview of Singapore’s religious diversity and focuses on some of its contemporary complexities. While recognising the positive – vibrancy and richness in religious diversity – it highlights problems and challenges posed by some religious trends and developments. The book foregrounds three religious\/faith traditions and orientations – Islam, Christianity and secularism – which have become significant in recent times. It highlights some challenges of growing religiosity and religious diversity, assesses how they can be expected to evolve in the near future, and discusses how they might be navigated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo commemorate the 50th anniversary of Singapore’s Independence, the \u003cem\u003eInstitute of Policy Studies\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eStraits Times Press\u003c\/em\u003e jointly launched the \u003cem\u003eSingapore Chronicles\u003c\/em\u003e series in 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 50-volume series seeks to record, explain and offer insights into what makes Singapore, Singapore.
