Religion, Ethnonationalism, and Antisemitism in the Era of the Two World Wars
«
“The tension [of a ‘dualistic view of antisemitism’], weaves through many chapters [and] deserves special emphasis and examination. Such an approach could help create a better understanding of the dynamics of the ethnicization of religion. One will find more than enough stimulus [for future research] here.” European History Quarterly

In the wake of WWI, religious identity and practice became tools for leaders to appropriate as instruments to define national belonging, often to the detriment of those outside the faith tradition. This book places ethnonationalism – a particular articulation of nationalism based upon an imagined ethnic community – at the centre of its analysis. Les mer

“The project is ambitious … each part reminds historians that the combination of religion, ethnic identity, and antisemitism were a constant in the vast majority of the cases included in this volume. The book ends with an exceptional overview of the major themes encountered in the essays [that] poignantly reminds us that Christianity, ethnonationalism, and antisemitism combined in a lethal way in the 1930’s and 1940’s, that this dangerous mixture still exists in today’s society, and that this should encourage further research.” Studies in Christian-Jewish Relations

“This important collection of essays adds a welcome dimension to our understanding of antisemitism in the interwar period and provides a challenge for those who believe that religious faith has something positive to contribute to politics and society.” Canadian Slavonic Papers

“Kevin Spicer and Rebecca Carter-Chand have assembled an impressive range of contributors for this book, many of whom are recognized scholars in their particular fields. The term ethnonationalism is woefully underutilized by historians, and this book is a strong argument in favour of its insertion into established narratives about nationalism and antisemitism in the interwar period.” Lauren Faulkner Rossi, Simon Fraser University and author of Wehrmacht Priests: Catholicism and the Nazi War of Annihilation
