RELIGION AS POLITICAL IDENTITY. UNDERSTANDING THE
GLOBAL RISE OF RELIGION AS A POLITICAL ISSUE
Polsci invites submissions on the topic of religion
and politics. The last years have seen an impressive
rise of the role of religion in many countries. Free
elections seem increasingly to be used by religious
political groups to advance an agenda, which is
opposed to the separation of State and Church
practiced in the Western liberal democracies. The
Danish cartoons and the reaction they encountered in
many Muslim countries have brought to forefront fresh
issues of the role of religion in global politics.
What has caused this unprecedented wave of identity
politics? Is radical Islamism turning into a new
anti-Western ideology as Marxism-Leninism was? What is
instrumental, and what is primordial in the drive
towards religion as a political factor? What explains
the appeal of this new ideology? What role should
institutions, such as secular political parties and
established Churches play in this debate? Is the
secular model of state under threat? Papers are
expected to range between 4000 and 7000 words. Case
studies and comparative approaches are equally
encouraged.
Deadline: 20 May 2006

CALL TWO Winter issue
THE TWO SIDES OF EUROPEAN TRANSFORMATION
Papers are invited on the topic of European
transformation. By European transformation we
understand both the changes that EU applicant or
hopeful applicant countries undergo in order to be
accepted in the European Union and the changes that
Europe itself experiences as it enlarges. How do the
new entrants impact the European Union, in political,
social and economical terms? How does Europe change
its neighbors, those who wish to join the EU and those
who do not? We welcome fresh innovative approaches,
4000-6000 in length.
Deadline: 20 September 2006
