This edited book examines the growing worldwide phenomenon of civilizational populism in democratic nation-states and brings together research that explores this in a wide variety of religious, political, and geographic contexts. In doing so, the book shows how, from Europe to India and Pakistan, and from Indonesia to the Americas, populists increasingly define national belonging through civilizational identity, claiming that the world can be divided into several religion-defined civilizations with incompatible values. The volume also discusses the complex relationship between civilizational populism, democracy and nationalism and shows how nationalists often use civilizational identity to help define ingroups and outgroups within their society. With this, the book investigates the salience of the concept, its widespread and influential nature, and also explains how populists construct civilizational identities, and the factors behind the rise of civilizational populism. Ihsan Yilmaz is Research Professor and Chair of Islamic Studies at the Alfred Deakin Institute for Citizenship and Globalisation (ADI), Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia. He has been working on religion and politics in majority and minority contexts, nation-building, citizenship, securitization, populism, authoritarianism, and digital authoritarianism.

Politics, Ideology and Nationalism: Jinnah, Savarkar and Ambedkar versus Gandhi is a new argument based on familiar historical evidences. It discusses three leaders-Savarkar, Ambedkar and Jinnah-in their opposition to Gandhi both in terms of ideology as well as social and political discourse. Although there are biographical works and other notable publications on them, none of these attempt to engage in contrasting their ideology and practices on a common platform. This book examines Gandhi and Savarkar-Ambedkar-Jinnah's commonality of opposition and their differing ideas of modernity. All three of them saw Gandhi as the biggest hurdle to the projects that they conceived. The book explores how these differences went beyond politics and shaped the contours of Indian politics during the 1930s and 1940s, and continue to affect it even today.

Au nom de la lutte contre les discriminations, une vague d’intolérance submerge le monde occidental. Venue des universités américaines, la religion woke, la religion des « éveillés », emporte tout sur son passage : médias et culture, entreprises, écoles, universités.De la théorie du genre à la théorie critique de la race, le but des wokes est de « déconstruire » tout l’héritage culturel d’un Occident accusé d’être « systémiquement » sexiste, raciste et colonialiste. Leur enthousiasme évoque bien plus les « réveils » religieux protestants américains que la philosophie française des années 1970. C’est la première fois dans l’histoire moderne qu’un culte prend naissance dans les universités. Tout est réuni pour que se mette en place une dictature au nom du « bien » et de la « justice sociale ».Jean-François Braunstein s’appuie sur des textes, des conférences et des essais afin de dénoncer cette religion nouvelle et destructrice pour la liberté. Un essai choc.
