Call for Papers "Religion out of Place? Civil Religion, Nationalism and Globaliztion in the 21st Century" An Open International Conference University of Copenhagen Copenhagen (Denmark) 29-31 August 2005
Traditionally, civil religion and religious nationalism have been linked to specific nation states. Due to the globalization, migration, and intensified demographic mobility of the last decades, various kinds of religion and religiosity have been transferred to new and unusual contexts. This conference seeks a more thorough understanding - theoretically as well as empirically - of the dynamic interrelations of migration, mobility, civil religion and religious nationalism. In short, we would like to find out what takes place, when religions of nations are out of place, and what kind of conflicts that may arise from this displacement. Keynote Speakers Anthony D.
