MONIZ, Jorge Botelho. The internal layers of secularization: systematization proposal of an essentially contested concept. Sociologia [online]. 2017, vol.34, pp.73-92. ISSN 0872-3419. https://doi.org/10.21747/08723419/soc34a4.
The concept of secularization has a deeply contested connotation, in particular, since its appropriation by social sciences. This concept still causes disruption in academic work since its scientific operability is still highly disputed. With this article, we offer an analytical systematization that helps on its operability. In order to do it, we propose a synchronic and dense study of its origins in 1960's social sciences, and through the comparative matrix, we analyze the following development of its five internal layers. We conclude that the understanding of its sociological emergence is inseparable from the development of its layers and that any research in this field benefits from a similar type of systematization
