A component of this myth is that religion is inherently violent and irrational unless controlled by the secular state, which is inherently rational and only reluctantly violent. Timothy Fitzgerald discusses how, in this modern myth, "religion" appears as a force of nature which either assists or threatens the sacred secular order of things, and how religion is portrayed as a kind of universal essence which takes many forms, its recent most dangerous manifestation being "Islamic terrorism". This book illustrates that the essential distinction between irrational religion and rational secular politics appears as an unquestioned preconception on the basis of which policy is conducted, countries invaded and wars fought. Arguing that this rhetorical construction of religion provides the foundation for faith in the rationality of modern liberal capitalism, Fitzgerald demonstrates how a historically contingent discourse has been transformed into a powerful set of global assumptions"--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aIdeology$xReligious aspects 606 $aReligion and international relations 606 $aReligion and politics 606 $2Religion & politics 615 0$aIdeology$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aReligion and international relations. 615 0$aReligion and politics. 676 $a201/.727 700 $aFitzgerald$b Timothy$f1947-$01471771 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781957903321 996 $aReligion and politics in international relations$93684182 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01221cam0-22004091i-450 001 990003783260403321 005 20240221130136.0 010 $a88-15-03730-6 035 $a000378326 100 $a20030910d1992----km-y0itay50------ba 101 1 $aita$ceng 102 $aIT 105 $ay-------001yy 200 1 $aTeoria dei giochi e modelli economici$fDavid M.
