The End of Secularization in Europe: A Socio-Demographic Perspective
Much of the current debate over secularization in Europe focuses only on the direction of religious change and pays exclusive attention to social causes. Scholars have been less attentive to shifts in the rate of religious decline and to the role of demography - notably fertility and immigration. This article addresses both phenomena. It uses data from the European Values Surveys and European Social Survey for the period 1981-2008 to establish ba…
The Endurance of Nationalism: Ancient Roots and Modern Dilemmas * What is a Nation? Europe, 1789-1914
IMMIGRATION is rapidly transforming many western nations while the spread of global communications further challenges the nation-state. In today's world, questions about whether the nation is antique, and can draw upon ethnic roots, or is modern, and hence a more shallow product of shifting political imperatives, become increasingly important. The two books reviewed here go some way towards helping us to understand the nature of nationalism and h…
The Dynamics of Orangeism in Scotland: Social Sources of Political Influence in a Mass-Member Organization, 1860-2001
Like other voluntary associations, fraternities such as the Orange Order underpin political cleavages. The membership dynamics behind such associations are less clear. Rival theories attribute membership fluctuations alternatively to changes in social capital, economic structure, culture, or events. This article uses a pooled time-series cross-sectional model to evaluate competing hypotheses for the period since 1860. Results suggest that members…
Modern Formation, Ethnic Reformation: The Social Sources of the American Nation
The question, 'When is the nation?', ranks second in importance only to the related query, 'Why is the nation?' in the contemporary social science and humanities literature on nationalism. This issue is confronted by this essay, which considers Anthony Smith's important perennialist-modernist dichotomy through the lens of the American experience. Along the way, it will address the related but independent question of whether nations are 'top-down'…
Friends in Need: Designing and Implementing a Psychoeducational Group for School Children from Drug-Involved Families
Despite widespread recognition of the risks that parental drug use pose to children, few resources are available to help such children. Using a developmental intervention approach, the authors designed and tested a model curriculum for use with groups of latency-aged children in schools located in communities where drug use is pervasive. In implementing this curriculum, the authors documented the need that children affected by family drug use hav…
