Securitization Paradigm and Religion
The securitization paradigm developed by the Copenhagen School examines how political elites construct threats through speech acts. When, after 9/11, the paradigm began to be applied to situations involving religion, the emphasis on its focus on speech acts and liberal-democratic contexts left unanswered how religious behaviors or groups become sites of security governance and how religion itself participates in securitizing processes. This revie…

This research explores the role of religious moderation centers in Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Islam Negeri (PTKIN), focusing on the integration between faith and history to be applied to PTKIN students. The context of this research reflects a deep need to understand how the Religious Moderation Center contributes crucially to achieving harmony in the Islamic academic environment. The research questions are directed at two main aspects of the disc…
A relational and genealogical approach to populism: The cases of Russia, Turkey and the United States
Studies on religious populism are on the rise. They are located within the three main theoretical approaches of populism: ideational, performative, and strategic. Building on these three components, this paper proposes a comprehensive analysis by creating an ideal type of the relations between religion and populism. To that effect, it utilizes the relational paradigm of populism from Pierre Ostiguy in conjunction with Ernest Laclau's concept of s…
Time, Power, and Religion: Comparing the Disputes over Temple Mount and the Ayodhya Sacred Sites
The main argument of this paper is that the sacred time and space of the nation has displaced the meaning of sacredness of the religious sites, and legitimized the national community. By comparing the Temple Mount and Ayodhya disputes, the paper exposes the tensions between two polarities, sacred/profane and religious/political, which helps explain the influence of national identities on the contested sacredness of religious sites. The competitio…
We God's People: Christianity, Islam and Hinduism in the World of Nations
Cesari argues that both religious and national communities are defined by the three Bs: belief, behaviour and belonging. By focusing on the ways in which these three Bs intersect, overlap or clash, she identifies the patterns of the politicization of religion, and vice versa, in any given context. Her approach has four advantages: firstly, it combines an exploration of institutional and ideational changes across time, which are usually separated …
The Muslim Stranger: The Combined Effect of Xenophobia and Islamophobia
This paper builds on Georg Simmel's definition of the stranger to examine Muslims' twofold position as outsiders and insiders within European societies. This specific status has triggered two distinct fears: xenophobia and Islamophobia. Both are at work in the current political treatment of Islam and Muslims and reinforce each other, independently of the legal, national, and social status of the concerned persons. Additionally Muslims are not onl…
Political Islam: More than Islamism
Secularism versus multiculturalism: Book Review of Essays on Secularism and Multiculturalism, by Tariq Modood, Reviewed by Jocelyne Cesari
In the first part of his book, Essays on Secularism and Multiculturalism, Tariq Modood offers a sharp diagnosis of the linkage between religion/ethnicity and race. In his nicely crafted words, he t
Teaching Religion and International Relations: Disciplinary, Pedagogical, and Personal Reflections
The study of religion and international religions has witnessed an exponential growth in recent decades. Courses and programs exploring the complex entanglements between faith and global politics have likewise mushroomed around the world. Despite this ferment, reflections on teaching religion and international relations have so far lagged behind. This forum seeks to remedy this general silence. It brings together a diverse range of scholars from …
Civilization as Disciplinization and the Consequences for Religion and World Politics
This article argues in favor of Norbert Elias’s historical and relational sociology to rehabilitate the notion of civilization in the study of international affairs. Elias’s approach has two major advantages. First, it avoids the use of de-historicized models of political development that project a western-centered approach as universal. Second it brings into focus the central role of the nation-state in the shaping of the contemporary religious …
Why Muslim Integration Fails in Christian-Heritage Societies By Claire L. Adida, David D. Laitin and Marie-Anne Valfort
The starting point of the book is the assessment of discrimination against Muslim immigrants in French society. The first part presents the results from several surveys that illustrate the negative opinions as well as the discriminatory practices against Muslim immigrants. The second part reviews the characteristics of Muslim immigrants that fuel the discrimination and negative opinions, mainly their religious practices (which do not comply with …
Unexpected Convergences: Religious Nationalism in Israel and Turkey
This article compares Israel and Turkey to demonstrate how religious nationalism can be analyzed by a combination of historical institutionalism and conceptual history of religious ideas and doctrines. Both cases exemplify how the building of the nation-state was associated with the exportation of the western concept of religion. The resulting association between national territory, state and religion can explain the existing politicization of re…

New Insights into Mesolithic Human Diet in the Mediterranean from Stable Isotope Analysis: The Sites of Campu Stefanu and Torre d'Aquila, Corsica
Mesolithic human remains are rare in the archaeological record of the French Mediterranean. Only the island of Corsica has so far produced relatively well-preserved burials, and recent archaeological excavations have brought to light new Mesolithic human remains. The site of Campu Stefanu, located in Sollacaro in the southeast of the island, contained a collective burial of seven to eight individuals in a previously unobserved funerary context. A…

Disciplining religion: The role of the state and its consequences on democracy
This article presents the concept of hegemonic religion and its relationship with democracy. This concept entails not only a certain type of institutional relation between state and religion but, more importantly, a kind of national culture with religion at its core. Utilizing Norbert Elias’s figurational sociology, this article analyses how postcolonial states have built a national habitus that plays a decisive role in the politicization of reli…
Institutional Relations Rather Than Clashes of Civilizations: When and How Is Religion Compatible with Democracy
This study develops and examines the concept of hegemonic religion and its relationship with democracy. A religion is hegemonic not only when the state grants that religion exclusive material and political privileges and benefits, but also when the religion is a core element of national identity and citizenship. We empirically examine the link between hegemonic religion and democracy using the Religion and State round 2 (RAS2), Polity, and CIRI d…
Paradoxes of Liberal Democracy: Islam, Western Europe, and the Danish Cartoon Crisis
This book is a collective project of four authors who discuss paradoxes of liberal democracy, taking as a case study the Danish cartoons crisis of 2006. The authors successfully avoid a juxtaposition of chapters to opt for an in-depth analysis of what they call the paradoxes of democracy that emerged from the cartoons crisis. The book's perspective is enticing, not to say timely. The authors reject the dominant narrative that, at the time of the …
Religion and Politics: What Does God Have To Do with It
Since 9/11, and even more so with the atrocities committed by ISIS in Iraq and Syria, violence in the name of God is predominantly perceived as a "different" kind of violence, which triggers more "absolute" and radical manifestations than its secular counter parts. In its first part, this article will challenge this so called exceptionalism of religious violence by questioning the neat divide between politics and religion that makes any forms of …

Mosque Conflicts in European Cities: Introduction
This brief paper introduces the special issue on mosque conflicts in Europe, which draws on research results of the Network of Comparative Research on Islam and Muslims in Europe. The paper first provides basic data on the numbers and distribution of Muslim immigrants in Europe. Reflecting a dialectical approach in which Muslims both affect, and are impacted by, European culture, the paper introduces the issue of the islamicisation of European pu…
Mosques in French Cities: Towards the End of a Conflict
Since the 1990s in France, tensions have decreased and Islam has started to be accepted as a component of religious and cultural French society, particularly at the local level. Discriminatory episodes such as the destruction of prayer halls or explicit resistance to the construction of mosques have tended to disappear, even in the aftermath of 9/11. At present no town councillor would deny the right to have a mosque and nearly everywhere represe…
Securitization of Islam in Europe
This article analyzes the political consequences of the “War on Terror” on the status of Islam in European public spaces, especially restriction of religious activities and practices. These restrictions are interpreted as the outcomes of a securitzation process, constructing Islam as an existential threat that requires extraordinary and emergency procedures outside the bounds of regular political procedure

Today, dramatic improvements in transportation and social communications are forging dense transnational networks.

After reviewing the major social th…
Islam de l’extérieur, musulmans de l'intérieur: Deux Visions Après Le 11 Septembre 2001
Jocelyne Césari analyse les enjeux de citoyenneté pour les pratiquants de l’Islam, pour les minorités et pour les migrants et montre comment le profilage et la dynamique de suspicion qui se mettent en place dans l’après 11 septembre peuvent remettre en cause les valeurs d’ouverture, d’intégration qui font partie de l’image même des Etats-Unis d’Amérique. Dans cet article, l’auteur montre comment dans l’après 11 septembre se sont renforcés la visi…

Les jeunes et l'Islam: De l'Exil Des Parents À La Célébration De Nouvelles Origines
Les conséquences de l'exil sur la filiation sont multiples ; à la remise en cause du patriarcat maghrébin s'ajoute le creusement d'un double écart entre parents et enfants, à la fois anthropologique et social. Face à l'effritement de leur autorité, certains pères sont tentés de maintenir les normes à tout prix ; ce qui contribue a rigidifier pour toute la famille des rôles inadaptés au contexte hexagonal. Cette situation provoque diverses réactio…

Or, l'affirmation de cette religion est concomitante au développement de l'islam politique sur la scène internationale. Ce qui n'est pas sans créer des malentendus. Aussi est-il important de faire apparaître la condition musulmane en France dans toute sa complexité et dans toute la diversité de ses pratiques …

De l'immigré au minoritaire: Les Maghrébins de France
De l'Immigré au minoritaire : les Maghrébins de France Jocelyne CESARI En l'espace d'une décennie, le processus de sédentarisation a contribué à l'émergence de revendications minoritaires à l'intérieur du groupe immigré d'origine maghrébine.

Les réseaux transnationaux entre l'Europe et le Maghreb: L'international sans territoire
Les réseaux transnationaux entre l'Europe et le Maghreb Jocelyne CESARI La domination du réseau sur le territoire, le maintien des circulations entre espace européen et espace maghrébin en dépit des logiques de sédentarisation à l'oeuvre au sein des populations immigrées obligent à repenser les rapports qui existent aujourd'hui entre Maghreb et Europe. C'est pourquoi le recours à d'autres concepts comme celui de diaspora peut favoriser la compréh…
L'Islam français: Entre sécularisation et mode de vie
Avec l'enracinement dans la société française des immigrés du Maghreb et d'Afrique, l'islam est désormais une composante du paysage religieux et culturel. Un fait sans précédent est donc en train de se produire : l'émergence d'un islam minoritaire dans un contexte de pluralisme politique et culturel. Ce processus est en train de transformer les modes d'identification à l'islam avec notamment une privatisation de ce réfèrent qui conduit une grande…

Le multiculturalisme mondialisé: Le Défi De l'Hétérogénéité

Si ces processus sont désormais massivement étudiés, l’approche scientifique des dimensions culturelles de la mondialisation, quant à elle, n’en est qu’à ses débuts.
