Cesari argues that both religious and national communities are
defined by the three Bs: belief, behaviour and belonging. By
focusing on the ways in which these three Bs intersect, overlap or
clash, she identifies the patterns of the politicization of
religion, and vice versa, in any given context. Her approach has
four advantages: firstly, it combines an exploration of
institutional and ideational changes across time, which are usually
separated by disciplinary boundaries. Secondly, it illustrates the
heuristic value of combining qualitative and quantitative methods
by statistically testing the validity of the patterns identified in
the qualitative historical phase of the research. Thirdly, it
avoids reducing religion to beliefs by investigating the
significance of the institution-ideas connections, and fourthly, it
broadens the political approach beyond state-religion relations to
take into account actions and ideas conveyed in other arenas such
as education, welfare, and culture.
