It examines the role of religion in fostering identity, survival and tolerance in the empires and nation-states of Europe from Antiquity until today; the interplay between religion, politics and ideologies in the twentieth century; the dialogue between religious communities and European institutions in the construction of the European Union; and the engagement of Catholicism, Protestantism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Islam, Judaism and Eastern religions with the idea of Europe. The Handbook closes with an overview of European nation states, focusing on history, demography, legal perspectives, political authorities, societal changes and current trends. Written by leading scholars in the field, the Handbook is an authoritative and up-to-date volume which demonstrates the enduring presence of lived and institutionalized religion in the social networks of identity, policy and power over two millennia of European history"-- ER -
