Nos sociétés modernes ont-elles encore besoin de héros ? Si en Europe de l'Ouest l'héroïsme national est considéré comme une expérience historiquement révolue ou à ce point redéfinie qu'elle en est méconnaissable, à l'Est, les États qui sortent du culte forcé des héros communistes réinventent, plus ou moins intensément, des héros nationaux. Des États-Unis à Israël, de l'Albanie à l'Irlande, de l'émergence enthousiaste de la nation moderne, à la fin du xviiie siècle, jusqu'à la reviviscence nationaliste qui se déroule sous nos yeux, les textes rassemblés dans ce livre tentent de cerner la fabrication d'un héros national, la mise en place d'une portion de panthéon, la liquidation ou la transformation soudaine des héros d'une période... De Napoléon aux parades des Orangistes, de Franco et Mussolini à Mère Teresa, des nouveaux héros guerriers serbes au père Popieluszko, ce parcours nous fait traverser différents espaces culturels, du local au national, de l'école élémentaire aux médias. S'il n'est pas possible à travers ces incarnations particulières de l'héroïcité, de tracer un portrait-robot du héros contemporain, on peut par contre en cerner certaines caractéristiques : la propension au sacrifice, la capacité médiatrice, l'intégration de traits appartenant à des héros antérieurs, l'aptitude à servir des causes parfois contradictoires. Ce livre analyse enfin le passage, aujourd'hui, d'un modèle héroïque d'identification collective à une individualisation et une banalisation dont l'ironie n'est pas absente et où le héros devient « homme sans qualités ». Du guerrier aux vertus surhumaines au premier venu, cet ouvrage nous propose, à travers un vaste échantillon de figures héroïques, une réfexion aussi vivante qu'actuelle sur la fabrication des héros.

Will the religious confrontations with secular authorities around the world lead to a new Cold War? Mark Juergensmeyer paints a provocative picture of the new religious revolutionaries altering the political landscape in the Middle East, South Asia, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe. Impassioned Muslim leaders in Egypt, Palestine, and Algeria, political rabbis in Israel, militant Sikhs in India, and triumphant Catholic clergy in Eastern Europe are all players in Juergensmeyer's study of the explosive growth of religious movements that decisively reject Western ideas of secular nationalism. Juergensmeyer revises our notions of religious revolutions. Instead of viewing religious nationalists as wild-eyed, anti-American fanatics, he reveals them as modern activists pursuing a legitimate form of politics. He explores the positive role religion can play in the political life of modern nations, even while acknowledging some religious nationalists' proclivity to violence and disregard of Western notions of human rights. Finally, he situates the growth of religious nationalism in the context of the political malaise of the modern West. Noting that the synthesis of traditional religion and secular nationalism yields a religious version of the modern nation-state, Juergensmeyer claims that such a political entity could conceivably embrace democratic values and human rights.

"The years 1908 to 1918 are frequently viewed as the period when the Ottoman Empire fell into decline, but in this volume Feroz Ahmad argues that the Empire was not in decline but instead was face to face with the process of decolonization. Its colonies, stimulated by the idea of nationalism, saw the opportunity to liberate themselves, sometimes with the help of the Great Powers of Europe, who in turn saw these rebellions as an opportunity to expand their own empires. While these ethno-nationalist movements have often been described in terms of Ottoman oppressor versus conspiring nationalists, here they are presented as part of the historical process. Ahmad holds that nationalism was introduced into the Ottoman Empire during the French Revolution, providing kindling for the struggles that later emerged. The Serbs were the first to rebel and thus launched the process of decolonization and struggle against Ottoman imperialism. After the Serbs, the Greeks rebelled and with European support were able to establish their own state. From Greece the struggle against the Ottomans spread throughout the Balkans and then to Anatolia. Setting the stage with this 19th-century background, Ahmad then examines each of the nationalities in a separate chapter, beginning with the restoration of the Ottoman constitution in 1908. The Young Turks, officially known as the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP), was a Turkish nationalist political party that ruled the Ottoman Empire from this time until the end of World War I. The book illuminates the relationships and conflicts between the Young Turks and the Greek, Armenian, Albanian, Jewish, and Arab ethnic groups during this period. Placing them in their historical context,"--
