Faith, Nationalism, and the Future of Liberal Democracy highlights the use of religious identity to fuel the rise of illiberal, nationalist, and populist democracy. In Faith,Nationalism, and the Future of Liberal Democracy, David Elcott, C. ColtAnderson, Tobias Cremer, and Volker Haarmann present a pragmatic and modernistexploration of how religion engages in the public square. Elcott and hisco-authors are concerned about the ways religious identity is being used tofoster the exclusion of individuals and communities from citizenship, politicalrepresentation, and a role in determining public policy. They examine the waysreligious identity is weaponized to fuel populist revolts against a political,social, and economic order that values democracy in a global and strikinglydiverse world. Included is a history and political analysis of religion,politics, and policies in Europe and the United States that foster thisilliberal rebellion. The authors explore what constitutesa constructive religious voice in the political arena, even in nurturingpatriotism and democracy, and what undermines and threatens liberaldemocracies. To lay the groundwork for a religious response, the book offerschapters showing how Catholicism, Protestantism, and Judaism can nourishliberal democracy. The authors encourage people of faith to promotefoundational support for the institutions and values of the democraticenterprise from within their own religious traditions and to stand against thehostility and cruelty that historically have resulted when religious zealotryand state power combine. Faith,Nationalism, and the Future of Liberal Democracy is intended for readerswho value democracy and are concerned about growing threats to it, andespecially for people of faith and religious leaders, as well as for scholarsof political science, religion, and democracy.

Verschiedene alttestamentliche Uberlieferungen sprechen von einer Hinwendung von Nichtisraeliten zum Gott Israels: Moses Schwiegervater Jitro (Ex 18), die Kanaanaerin Rahab (Jos 2) und der Aramaer Naaman (2Kon 5) bekennen sich ausdrucklich zu JHWH. Bei den Seeleuten des Jona (Jon 1) steht besonders die kultische Verehrung JHWHs im Vordergrund. Auch 1Kon 8,41-43 und Jes 56,1-8 handeln von Fremden, die sich JHWH und dessen Verehrung anschliessen. Bislang wurden diese Uberlieferungen ublicherweise als erste Belege fur das Phanomen des Proselytismus gewertet. Die vorliegende Studie kann demgegenuber zeigen, dass ihnen ein anderes Modell der JHWH-Beziehung von Heiden zugrunde liegt, das insbesondere nicht mit deren Inkorporation in Israel verbunden ist. Die als JHWH-Verehrer der Volker zu bezeichnenden Fremden erhalten im Kontext des nachexilischen Israel/Juda Zugang zum Gottesverhaltnis Israels, ohne dass dadurch ihre Identitat oder die Identitat Israels aufgehoben wurde. Volker Haarmann, Dr. theol., Jahrgang 1973, studierte Evangelische Theologie und absolvierte Judische Studien in Heidelberg, Jerusalem, Tubingen und Cambridge/USA. Seit 2006 ist er Vikar der Evangelischen Kirche im Rheinland in Wuppertal.
