With political controversies raging over issues such as the wearing
of headscarves in schools and the mention of Christianity in the
European Constitution, religious issues are of growing importance
in European politics. In this volume, Byrnes and Katzenstein
analyze the effect that enlargement to countries with different and
stronger religious traditions may have on the EU as a whole, and in
particular on its homogeneity and assumed secular nature. Looking
through the lens of the transnational religious communities of
Catholicism, Orthodoxy and Islam, they argue that religious factors
are stumbling blocks rather than stepping stones toward the further
integration of Europe. All three religious traditions are advancing
notions of European identity and European union that differ
substantially from how the European integration process is
generally understood by political leaders and scholars. This volume
makes an important addition to the fields of European politics,
political sociology, and the sociology of religion.
