It is difficult to imagine forces in the modern world as potent as
nationalism and religion. Both provide people with a source of
meaning, each has motivated individuals to carry out extraordinary
acts of heroism and cruelty, and both serve as the foundation for
communal and personal identity. While the subject has received both
scholarly and popular attention, this distinctive book is the first
comparative study to examine the origins and development of three
distinct models: religious nationalism, secular nationalism, and
civil-religious nationalism. Using multiple methods, the authors
develop a new theoretical framework that can be applied across
diverse countries and religious traditions to understand the
emergence, development, and stability of different church-state
arrangements over time. The work combines public opinion,
constitutional, and content analysis of the United States, Israel,
India, Greece, Uruguay, and Malaysia, weaving together historical
and contemporary illustrations.
