The relationship between religious identity and national identity has shaped societies for centuries, yet its deep historical roots are often overlooked. Religion and Nation in Eastern Europe, Russia, and the Post-Soviet West - Revisited explores how the linkage between religion and nation dates back to the Middle Ages and, in some cases, ancient times, as seen with the Jews and Greeks. This groundbreaking book sheds light on the enduring connection between faith and collective identity, offering fresh perspectives on a topic that remains highly relevant today. Featuring contributions from 20 leading scholars, this volume examines the dynamic interplay between religion and nation across different historical periods. From the early Middle Ages to more recent centuries, the chapters reveal how dominant religious structures have consistently served political purposes. Readers will discover how nations, united by language and traditions, often take on a religious dimension - even in cases like Ukraine and Hungary, where multiple Churches vie to define and preserve national culture. This book will be of interest to historians, sociologists, political scientists, anthropologists, and anyone interested in understanding the profound ways religion and national identity have shaped human history. With its rich insights and diverse perspectives, Religion and Nation in Eastern Europe, Russia, and the Post-Soviet West - Revisited offers a compelling exploration of a timeless and complex relationship.
