Reviews

'Kristin Fabbe has written a highly engaging study of the historical relationship between religion and state-building in the Middle East and Balkans … Fabbe's study should appeal to historians and political and other social scientists interested in state-building, secularization, and nationalism.' Mark Biondich, Journal of Church and State
