Religion Geopolitics and Global Security
In recent decades, religion has re-emerged in Western societies in a dynamic way, claiming a central role in the international public sphere. The creation of a more complex mosaic of religions in the contemporary public sphere is due, among other things, to the successive migratory flows that have marked the 21st century.
Religion is internationally intertwined with political, social and economic institutions, contributing to the formation of today’s multicultural society, while at the same time being linked to social tensions and phenomena of violence. This new reality makes it imperative to undertake an interdisciplinary and in-depth study of the role of religion in contemporary political and social life and its contribution to global stability and peace.
