%0 Journal Article %T Religion, Religiosity, and World Order* %A Md. Hamid Ansari %J Contemporary Review of the Middle East %@ 2349-0055 %D 2019 %R 10.1177/2347798918812263 %X Abstract The continuing, albeit heightened, relevance of faith-related disruptions in domestic and international discourses are a function of politics and geopolitics and is not, on empirical evidence, suggestive of heightened piety. Would this induce that religion is not politics, that religiosity is not religion, and that global order is to be premised on global interests and not on exclusively national ones? Are we prepared, conceptually and organizationally, to undertake it even if it involves as it must going beyond the traditional paradigm of faith and of national interest? Or, could the alternative be a modern-day version of Milton¡¯s Pandemonium, the high capital of Satan and his peers, built by little demons %K Faith %K religion %K politics %K geopolitics %K terrorism %K global order %U https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2347798918812263
