Religious Nationalism: Hindus and Muslims in India
ISBN: 9780520082564 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Religious nationalism is a subject of critical importance in much of the world today. Peter van der Veer's timely study on the relationship between religion and politics in India goes well beyond other books on this subject. He brings together several disciplines--anthropology, history, social theory, literary studies--to show how Indian religious identities have been shaped by pilgrimage, migration, language development, and more recently, print and visual media. Van der Veer's central focus is the lengthy dispute over the Babari mosque in Ayodhya, site of a bloody confrontation between...

Conversion to Modernities
ISBN: 9780415912747 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 287 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Peter van der Veer has gathered together a groundbreaking collection of essays that suggests that conversion to forms of Christianity in the modern period is not only a conversion to modern forms of these religions, but also to religious forms of modernity. Religious perceptions of the self, of community, and of the state are transformed when Western discourses of modernity become dominant in the modern world. This volume seeks to relate Europe and its Others by exploring conversion both in modern Europe and in the colonized world.

Handbook of Religion and the Asian City: Aspiration and Urbanization in the Twenty-First Century
ISBN: 9780520281226 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 488 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Handbook of Religion and the Asian City highlights the creative and innovative role of urban aspirations in Asian world cities. It does not assume that religion is of the past and that the urban is secular, but instead points out that urban politics and governance often manifest religious boundaries and sensibilities--in short, that public religion is politics. The essays in this book show how projects of secularism come up against projects and ambitions of a religious nature, a particular form of contestation that takes the city as its public arena. Questioning the limits of...

Imperial Encounters: Religion and Modernity in India and Britain
ISBN: 9780691074788 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Picking up on Edward Said's claim that the historical experience of empire is common to both the colonizer and the colonized, Peter van der Veer takes the case of religion to examine the mutual impact of Britain's colonization of India on Indian and British culture. He shows that national culture in both India and Britain developed in relation to their shared colonial experience and that notions of religion and secularity were crucial in imagining the modern nation in both countries. In the process, van der Veer chronicles how these notions developed in the second half of the nineteenth...

Nation and Religion: Perspectives on Europe and Asia
ISBN: 9780691012322 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Does modernity make religion politically irrelevant? Conventional scholarly and popular wisdom says that it does. The prevailing view assumes that the onset of western modernity--characterized by the rise of nationalism, the dominance of capitalism, and the emergence of powerful state institutions--favors secularism and relegates religion to the purely private realm. This collection of essays on nationalism and religion in Europe and Asia challenges that view. Contributors show that religion and politics are mixed together in complex and vitally important ways not just in the East, but in... Does modernity make religion politically irrelevant?
