Princeton University Press 1999 paperback New

ISBN10: 0691012326, ISBN13: 9780691012322, [publisher: Princeton University Press, New Jersey] Softcover Paperback. This collection of essays on nationalism and religion in Europe and Asia challenges the prevailing view that Western modernism favours secularism and relegates religion to the purely private realm. It argues that religion and politics are mixed together in vital and complex ways in both East and West. The book focuses on four societies: India, Japan, Britain and the Netherlands. It argues that religion and nationalism in these societies combined to produce such notions as imperialism, the possibility of national revival, and political leadership as a form of salvation. The text also examines the qualities of religious discourse and practice that can be used for nationalist purposes, paying special attention to how religion can help to give meaning to sacrifice in national struggle. The book focuses on four societies: India, Japan, Britain, and the Netherlands. It shows that religion and nationalism in these societies combined to produce such notions as the nation being chosen for a historical task (imperialism, for example), the possibility of national revival, and political leadership as a form of salvation.

The prevailing view assumes that the onset of western modernity--characterized by the rise of nationalism, the dominance of capitalism, and the emergence of powerful state institutions--favors secularism and relegates religion to the purely private realm. This collection of essays on nationalism and religion in Europe and Asia challenges that view. Contributors show that religion and politics are mixed together in complex and vitally important ways not just in the East, but in the West as well.The book focuses on four societies: India, Japan, Britain, and the Netherlands. It shows that religion and nationalism in these societies combined to produce such notions as the nation being chosen for a historical task (imperialism, for example), the possibility of national revival, and political leadership as a form of salvation. The volume also examines the qualities of religious discourse and practice that can be used for nationalist purposes, paying special attention to how religion can help to give meaning to sacrifice in national struggle. The book's comparative approach underscores that developments in colonizing and colonized countries, too often considered separately, are subtly interrelated.In ...
