Religious Nationalism in the 21st Century
Religious nationalism is one of the most significant political phenomena of the past decades, mobilizing large numbers of people across the globe. This article examines how religious nationalism has been conceptualized in the literature on nationalism and discusses what the sociology of religion has to offer to understand and explain the phenomenon.

Jan Gross's Neighbors and Poland's Narrative Shock
Jan Gross’s Neighbors and Poland’s Narrative Shock Geneviève Zubrzycki (bio) Rare are the books that make history and alter collective memory. Jan Tomasz Gross’s Neighbors: The Destruction of the Jewish Community in Jedwabne, Poland is one. Neighbors described in painful detail how, in the summer of 1941, ethnic Poles tormented and murdered their Jewish neighbors in the small town of Jedwabne, in northeastern Poland. While Polish indifference tow…
Theodicy and Crisis
Based on a national survey of U.S. adults conducted six weeks into the COVID-19 pandemic, this article investigates how crisis affects religious faith. Almost no Americans reported losing or a weakening of faith in response to the pandemic at this time. By contrast, nearly one-third of believers indicated that the coronavirus outbreak had strengthened their faith. We theoretically develop and empirically test three religious factors—theodicy, pra…
Quo Vadis, Polonia? On religious loyalty, exit, and voice
Poland’s public sphere, in the three decades following the fall of communism, has been shaped by tensions between secular and religious visions of the polity. This article analyzes significant trends in the politico-religious landscape of contemporary Poland and discusses the growing polarization of Polish society around religion and politics. While the Catholic Church openly supports the country’s populist and right-wing government and remains s…
The Comparative Politics of Collective Memory
This article examines the theoretical and empirical contributions of the interdisciplinary field of memory studies for a comparative sociology of collective memory and politics. We identify three major empirical foci that have structured the scholarship: the role of collective memory in the creation, legitimation, and maintenance of national identities and nation-states; political reckoning with the memory of difficult and violent pasts; and the …

National culture, national identity, and the culture(s) of the nation
Until relatively recently, scholars of nationalism primarily used culture to stand for language, ethnicity, and broadly defined traditions. Culture was that stuff out of which nations were built and which nationalists sought to protect and perfect under the aegis of the modern nation-state. Alternatively, culture was regarded as a “thing” requiring invention in order for people to care about, and fight for, in the establishment of nation-states. …
American Covenant
American society is at a crossroads. It is deeply divided and the level of public discourse is at an all-time low. Recovering and reviving the “vital center” of politics is crucial. American civil religion opens a path toward this goal, argues Philip Gorski in American Covenant: A History of Civil Religion from the Puritans to the Present. The book is at once an analysis and a plea: thus Gorski addresses readers “as citizens first and scholars se…

Polonia semper fidelis? National Mythology, Religion and Politics in Poland
The Politics of Jewish Absence in Contemporary Poland
Since the early 2000s, Polish society has undergone a significant ‘mnemonic awakening’; rediscovering traces of past Jewish presence in that country, critically examining the process of eradication of Jewish life and its subsequent erasure from collective memory, and attempting to recover some aspects of the Polish-Jewish past. Based on archival and ethnographic data, this article analyzes different modes of mnemonic practices that directly engag…
Nationalism, “Philosemitism,” and Symbolic Boundary-Making in Contemporary Poland
This article analyzes the growing interest in Jews and all things Jewish in contemporary Poland—from the spectacular popularity of festivals of Jewish culture to the opening of Judaica bookstores and Jewish cuisine restaurants; from the development of Jewish studies programs at various universities and the creation of several museums to artists’ and public intellectuals’ engagements with Poland's Jewish past and Polish-Jewish relations more broad…
Laïcité et patrimonialisation du religieux au Québec

À travers l'analyse de cas et de débats saillants tels la commission Bouchard-Taylor sur les accommodements raisonnables, le projet de Charte des valeurs québécoises proposé par le Parti Québécois, les débats autour du crucifix à l'Assemblée nationale et les poursuites et jugements de la cour sur la prière à Saguenay, nous étudi…

Q uebec
Nationalism in Quebec can be divided into three periods: Canadiens' republican nationalism (1800s–1840s), French Canadian ethnoreligious nationalism (1840s–1960), and Québécois territorial and linguistic nationalism (1960s–). After the failure of republican insurrections in 1837–38, the national project was reoriented around ethnocultural survival, with Catholicism becoming an important national marker. During the 1960s' Quiet Revolution a new ge…

Polish national identity has been shaped by long periods of statelessness and colonial subordination. The disappearance of the Polish state in 1795 stifled an emerging civic definition of the nation and reoriented it along messianic notions of suffering and redemption to be gained through national independence. By the end of the nineteenth century, however, the nation had been reconfigured as a community of language, culture, and faith. After Pol…

Religion, Religious Tradition, and Nationalism
This article uses and develops Martin Riesebrodt's distinction between religion and religious tradition to shed light on the making of various articulations of religious identities and political projects. Based on extensive research on the Polish and Québécois cases, I show how social and state actors in these societies reactivate past religious traditions to respond to current social transformations and articulate societal projects and advance p…

De la nation ethnique à la nation civique
With the advent of a legitimate, democratic state in Poland it is necessary not only to reconsider the traditional role and the predominant place of the Catholic Church in Polish society, but also — and more significantly —to redefine the bases of national identity. The author's thesis is that the national and political legitimacy of the state is leading to a transition from a primarily cultural and religious definition of the nation and of Polis…
