The Sectarian Myth in Scotland: Of Bitter Memory and Bigotry


Add your own review!

Overview

The question of sectarianism in Scotland belongs within a wider framework than it has hitherto been placed. It offers insights into continuing, indeed pressing, debates about religious identity and civil and political society in the modern world. This book questions the view that religion and politics do not, and cannot, mix in pluralistic, tolerant and increasingly secular societies, and reveals that memories bitter memories can outlive, and obscure, the demise of actual conflict.
