In the past few years, the term Christian Nationalism has appeared much more frequently in public discourse in the United States. Some politicians are embracing it as a foundation for their political identities. A wave of new books on the topic have recently appeared, some to argue for Christian Nationalism as a political strategy to save the nation and others to illuminate the threat it poses to liberal democracies founded on a commitment to pluralism. In this session, Dr. David Krueger will provide background to the rise of Christian nationalism and discuss its implications for the health of religiously-diverse democracies. This session is intended to be a catalyst for future conversations about religious nationalisms around the world.
Dr. David Krueger is a historian of religion in the U.S., adjunct professor at Temple University, and executive director of the Dialogue Institute.
