A Stirring Farewell to Muhammad Ali, Just as He Scripted It
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Muhammad Ali spent the better part of a decade planning his funeral, his friends and family said, and by late Friday afternoon it was evident what had taken him so long. In a spectacle that fanned across miles of his hometown, in memories that stretched over some of 20th-century America’s most turbulent years, and in prayers from the palette of faiths that he honored as paths to truth, he was laid to rest, one week after his death at age 74.
Ali was eulogized in a grand sports arena by, among others, a priest and an imam, a rabbi and a monk, a former United States president and a famous comedian. Protégées and daughters and his wife remembered him. As they spoke, all stood beneath the flags of the United States and the Olympic Games, symbols of a man who saw himself as a citizen of America and of the world.
中略
It was all part of a leave-taking that Ali had seen as a chance to lead once more by including Christians, Jews, Buddhists and Native Americans as speakers in an emphatic, if not explicitly spoken, renunciation of sectarianism and embrace of ecumenism.

今回取り上げる表現はsectarianismです。ismとなっていますので、〜主義を意味する言葉だと考えられます。『ライトハウス英和辞典』（第5版 研究社）で調べてみますと、不可算名詞で「（しばしば軽べつ的）党派心、派閥根性、セクト主義」という意味があることがわかりました。その前の項目にはsectarian「（限定）分派（間）の、宗派（間）の、党派心の強い、偏狭な」という意味を持つ形容詞が載っておりました。sectarianはLDOCEには “supporting a particular religious group and its beliefs”と載っておりました。(aqua)
