The Reformation was essentially a religious renewal of Christianity in Europe. As such, it has contributed decisively, along with the Renaissance and humanism, to the formation of a secular modernity. What exactly was this contribution and how is it to be assessed? Have Reformation movements destroyed the traditional unity of the church and the state, of society and culture, and in so doing instigated the marginalisation of Christianity in Europe? Or have they brought central impulses of Christianity to the fore, without which Western modernity could not developed, and which also characterise a society that understands itself as secular in a plural late modern era? The present volume attempts to shed light on these controversial questions. Criticisms levelled at reformed traditions by the secular modernism standpoint as well as those aimed at European modernity and late-modernity from the camp of reformed thinking are also given a voice.

Despite established social, political and cultural differences, and despite the tricky mountainous setting, over 50 early modern era alpine valley communities managed to cooperate reliably with one another without either central instance or state. Notwithstanding these adverse conditions - such as steep mountains, remote valleys and settlements strewn far apart - they were able to successfully organise their common social and political interests. They even developed a dynamic unity and order completely without superior central power. This at first seemingly paradoxical finding is taken by Sandro Liniger as an opportunity to analyse just how such a dispersed society functions: Which specific logic characterises such an alternative form of organising common social and political life? Which instabilities and resistances are peculiar to it? And which conflicts characterise it?

L'intégration européenne est et était une chance et un risque en même temps. Les communications de ce volume étudient les problèmes qui résultent de la dynamique du processus de l'intégration européenne pour ses États membres. Bien qu'ils éprouvassent chaque élargissement aussi comme une sorte de menace, les impulsions de modernisation qui en résultèrent se révélaient avantageuses, dans l'ensemble, pour les économies nationales. L'analyse dévoile le «sauvetage européen de l'État national» en exposant l'aspiration de l'État dans le contexte de la communauté économique européenne.Die Europäische
