Abstract "Most great religious traditions are global in scope, but they are often used to promote nationalist and isolationist ideas. Why do politicians in Poland and Lithuania stress the strong bond between the Catholic Church and the national identities? And how are ethno-religious conflicts expressed in Norway? In this book, you will find new data and new insights, providing explanations for these and other questions. Fascinating case studies from Europe and China are the basis for analyses on how global interconnectedness sparks both unity and conflict within religious spheres, demonstrating the interplay of local and global influences as well as the dynamics of glocalization. Contributors are: Milda Ališauskienė, Peter B. Andersen, Eileen Barker, Peter Beyer, Irena Borowik, Lisbet Christoffersen, Inger Furseth, Peter Gundelach, Annika Hvithamar, Massimo Introvigne, Hans Raun Iversen, Brian Arly Jacobsen, Niels Kærgaard, Pål Repstad, and Morten Warmind.
