Is Religious Radicalism at the Heart of Global Change?
Religion is making a strong comeback on the global stage. Alain Dieckhoff has edited a book entitled Radicalités religieuses. Au Coeur d’une mutation mondiale (Religious Radicalism: At the Heart of Global Change) (Albin Michel, 2025), which provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary religious radicalism and offers valuable insights into the complex relationships between the state, ethnicity, nationalism, violence and religion.
Written by leading experts in the field, including several researchers from CERI, this collective work reflects the current dynamism of research on religion in France.
In this extensive interview, Alain Dieckhoff, the editor, and Denis Lacorne and Stéphane Lacroix answer our questions, offering their informed perspectives on the current global transformations of religion.
