    Adrian Hastings, Keith ClementsARTICLEJournal of Religion in Africa2001

    J H Oldham is the Father of the Ecumenical Movement and it is impossible to tell his story without recounting the way in which churches and missionary societies all over the world were growing closer together throughout the whole of the 20th century, going back before the Edinburgh Conference in 1910, until his death in 1969. Oldham was a major player in it all. But the book is also about much more than the churches. For Oldham every issue in soc…

  • Special Peoples

    Open AccessAdrian HastingsARTICLENations and Nationalism1999Cited by: 6References: 3

    Special Peoples’ explores the causes and consequences of believing in a chosen people by considering, first, the Serbian case, as seen especially in Rebecca West's Black Lamb and Grey Falcon. The mythology, history and genuine Byzantine traditions which have created this East European form of belief in ‘special chosenness’ is then compared with West European developments. While both make use of the Bible, the West (and also Ethiopia), it is sugge…

  • The Construction of Nationhood: Ethnicity, Religion and Nationalism

    John Lonsdale, Adrian HastingsBOOKConstruction of Nationhood1997Cited by: 180

    The Construction of Nationhood, first published in 1997, is a thorough re-analysis of both nationalism and nations. In particular it challenges the current 'modernist' orthodoxies of such writers as Eric Hobsbawm, Benedict Anderson and Ernest Gellner, and it offers a systematic critique of Hobsbawm's best-selling Nations and Nationalism since 1780. In opposition to a historiography which limits nations and nationalism to the eighteenth century an…
