Title: | Religion, Identity and Politics in Northern Ireland |
Authors: | Mitchell, Claire |
Keywords: | Christianity and politics |
Issue Date: | 2006 |

Description: | Finally, this book is concerned with religious change. Religion is not just a static force that causes certain attitudes in a linear fashion. Rather, the religious elements of identification are highly responsive to social and political effects. My thinking on religious meaning and significance has been informed by my own experience of an evangelical socialization in Northern Ireland followed by ten agnostic years in secular Dublin. No study on religion and conflict in Northern Ireland, not least by someone who has grown up there, can claim to be value free. However, thinking analytically about my own religious and political journey, and how it has responded to changes in my social context, has been invaluable in attempting to understand the dynamics of the relationships between religion, identity and social relationships |
