Introduction: Rethinking Religion and Globalization -- PART I: THE RELIGIONS OF THE BOOK: TRAJECTORIES, COMPARISONS -- The Protestant International -- Old Networks, New Connections: The Emergence of the Jewish International -- Nineteenth-century Catholic Internationalism and its Predecessors -- The Islamic World: World System to 'Religious International' -- PART II: RELIGIOUS INTERNATIONALS IN TRANSITION -- Nationalism versus Internationalism: Russian Orthodoxy in Nineteenth-Century Palestine -- Muslim Internationalism between Empire and Nation-State -- Religious Internationalism in the Jewish Diaspora b6 s Tunis at the Dawn of the Colonial Period -- Transnational Buddhist Activists in the Era of Empires -- PART III: RELIGIOUS INTERNATIONALS IN THE MODERN WORLD: LIMITS AND NEW HORIZONS -- The Hadhrami Sada and the Evolution of an Islamic Religious International, c. 1750s to 1930s -- A Religious International in Southeastern Europe? -- Activism as Engine: Jewish Internationalism, 1880s-1980s -- Protestant Ecclesiastical Internationals -- From State to Civil Society and Back Again: The Catholic Church as Transnational Actor, 1965 b6 s2005 -- The Global Sangh Parivar: a Study of Contemporary International Hinduism.

The central idea behind this book is that the globalisation and politicisation of traditional religious identities is a historical phenomenon with deep roots in the 19th-20th centuries. Tracing the emergence of 'Religious Internationals' as a distinctive new phenomenon in world history, it transforms our understanding of the place of religion in the modern world. Leading historians and social scientists break new ground by comparing the historical experiences of different faith communities in an age of globalization without comparing them as religions. In-depth case studies focus on the internationalist dimensions of Buddhism, Christianity (Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant), Hinduism, Judaism and Islam. Individually, they illuminate the complex processes whereby communities of believers became communities of opinion. Collectively, they shed new light on the origins and nature of global civil society, highlighting the role of religion as one of its motor forces from the start.
