Introduction: The Role of Religion in Cultural Foundations of Ethnonationalism
Martin E. Marty89
A Global Context for a Global Issue
After World War II and toward midcentury, global strategists, war-makers, and peace seekers seemed to agree that the basic unit for creating conflict on the world scene was the nation. At the same time, the invention of the United Nations and its correlate organizations was an address to the problem of nationalism through the instrument of internationalism. The nations did not live or act independently of each other. The cold war, then starting, found them clustered, by force or necessity, around the agencies of the Soviet Union versus the United States. The destinies of uncommitted nations in a third world were also connected with those of the superpowers. Entities smaller than nationscall them peoples, tribes, groups, subcommunities, or whateverexisted as before but were not central in reckonings of power.
At the end of the century the nations and the United Nations survive, but their power has been compromised or undercut by forces that had been latent or suppressed; however, in the course of the decades they have resumed their old stances of opposition to each other and, often, military conflict. In the course of time the term ethnonationalism emerged to relate to this reality. Ethnonationalism offers much to the people who make up the "peoples," just as the peoples in their various groupings serve as a threat to peace in dozens of regions and situations.
Meanwhile, at and after midcentury, those who made what we might call mainstream assessments of the spiritual situation, the humanistic aspects of "the human condition," tended to converge with their descriptions
