Abstract
La lecture de la production en sociologie des religions donne à penser que nous sommes toujours dans une période transitoire, en chemin vers une nouvelle configuration religieuse encore largement indiscernable. Or la littérature sociologique et les enquêtes empiriques depuis une trentaine d’années décrivent une situation se stabilisant autour de certaines caractéristiques globales, tant et si bien qu’on peut se demander si de nouvelles logiques n’auraient pas vu le jour dont il serait possible de montrer la systématicité. Inspiré des travaux de Charles Taylor, cet article esquisse les grandes lignes de l’hypothèse d’une nouvelle régulation du religieux en proposant de comprendre l’avènement de la société de consommation sous l’angle d’un accomplissement du tournant subjectif moderne et de la radicalisation conséquente de la culture de l’authenticité et de l’expressivité. Par-delà leur éclatement, les religiosités contemporaines se donnent à lire comme autant de réponses à l’impératif social d’un projet de soi, des constructions identitaires ou « itinéraires de sens » (Raymond Lemieux) soumis aux enjeux d’une reconnaissance porteuse d’une puissante normativité. The bulk of the production in the sociology of religion today tends to corroborate the idea that contemporary societies are defined by their transience, as if en route towards some kind of future religious configuration still indiscernible. Yet one can note that empirical studies and scientific literature alike have been describing a situation which has tended to stabilize around certain characteristics these last two or three decades. This article argues that such stability signifies that these characteristics form an interdependent and coherent system and sketches out the hypothesis of a new regulation of religion in our societies contradicting such ideas as fragmentation and atomization. Following some of Charles Taylor’s ideas, this article considers the advent of consumer society as realizing the subjective-turn part of the modernization process through a radicalization of the culture of authenticity and expressivity. Thus contemporary religiosities are individual answers to the social imperative to construct a self and a personal life narrative which in turn must be expressed in order to be recognized, this recognition being the mechanism through which consumer societies efficiently regulate.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
