Much, if not most, of the early work done in Nationalism Studies has been based, at least implicitly, on the idea that religion, as a genealogical carrier of identity, was displaced with the advent of secular modernity, which was caused by nationalism. Or, to put it another way, national identity, and its ideological manifestation nationalism, filled the void left in people?s self-identification as religion retreated in the face of modernity. Since at least the late 1990s, this view has been increasingly challenged by scholars trying to account for the apparent persistence of religious identities. Perhaps even more interestingly, scholars of both religion and nationalism have noted that these two kinds of self-identification, while sometimes being tense, as the earlier models explained, are also frequently coexistent or even mutually supportive. This collection of essays explores the current thinking about the relationship between religion and nationalism from a variety of perspectives, using a number of different case studies. What all these approaches have in common is their interest in complicating our understandings of nationalism as a primarily secular phenomenon by bringing religion back into the discussion. 517 $aFor God and Country 606 $aReligion & beliefs$2bicssc 610 $aChristian nationalism 610 $aProtestantism 610 $aevangelicalism 610 $aecumenical movement 610 $aReinhold Niebuhr 610 $aFrancis Miller 610 $aChristianity and Crisis 610 $aaxial age 610 $akinship 610 $amonolatry 610 $amonotheism 610 $anation 610 $apriest 610 $areligion 610 $aterritory 610 $anationalism 610 $aTatar 610 $asocialism 610 $aIslamic reform 610 $aWahhabism 610 $areligious nationalism 610 $aAmerican Buddhism 610 $aGod and Country 610 $aminority religion in the U.S. 610 $aEngaged Buddhism 610 $aRomanitas 610 $aHellenitas 610 $aGraecitas 610 $aHellene 610 $aGreek 610 $aByzantine Empire 610 $aidentity 610 $aconsciousness 610 $areligious rituals 610 $asecular rituals 610 $aprofane rituals 610 $ademocratic faith 610 $acivil religion 610 $acivility 610 $amoderation 610 $aOrthodox Christianity 610 $aautocephaly 610 $aschism 610 $acanon law 610 $achurch?state conflicts 610 $aBuddhism 610 $aTherav?da 610 $anon-violence 610 $aasceticism 610 $apolytheism 610 $aBurma 610 $aMyanmar 610 $aIslamism 615 7$aReligion & beliefs 700 $aMentzel$b Peter C$4edt$01288399 702 $aMentzel$b Peter C$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557797003321 996 $aFor God and Country$93020819 997 $aUNINA
