Despite the broadly assumed institutional separation of church and
state in contemporary Western politics, there is a trend towards
renewed alliances between illiberal interpretations of religion and
right-wing populist politics that challenge liberal democracy. This
book explores the theoretically and empirically complex
ideological, structural, and historical linkage between religion
and illiberal politics within a broad range of European states. It
shows how political actors apply Christian identity narratives to
push exclusionist anti-Muslim politics, while simultaneously
showcasing the ways in which religious actors evolve as illiberal
players searching for political allies. This timely volume offers a
critical look at a key contemporary issue that challenges
assumptions and the reputations of current relationships between
church and state.
