From al Qaeda to Christian militias to insurgents in Iraq, a strident new religious activism has seized the imaginations of political rebels around the world. Building on his groundbreaking book, The New Cold War?: Religious Nationalism Confronts the Secular State, Mark Juergensmeyer here provides an up-to-date road map through this complex new religious terrain. Basing his discussion on interviews with militant activists and case studies of rebellious movements, Juergensmeyer puts a human face on conflicts that have become increasingly abstract. He revises our notions of religious revolution and offers positive proposals for responding to religious activism in ways that will diminish the violence and lead to an accommodation between radical religion and the secular world.Comparative studies in religion and society ;16.ReligionsRadicalismReligious aspects21st century.activism.activist.activists.al qaeda.belief.christian.christianity.cold war.faith.insurgency.insurgents.iraq.islam.military.militia.nationalism.political rebellion.political.politics.radical religion.religion.religious activism.religious nationalism.religious rebellion.religious studies.secular world.secular.true story.turn of the century.Religions.RadicalismReligious aspects.322/.189.41bcl89.30bclJuergensmeyer Mark451036MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817879303321Global rebellion4085134UNINA
