Proposant à la philosophie sociale une nouvelle détermination relationnelle de son objet, Michel Saar expose dans cet article, sous la forme d'une grille de concepts, l'armature théorique permettant d'analyser conjointement plusieurs sens du « social », différenciés dans des relations d'« ordre », de « pratiques », et de « sujets sociaux ». À ces relations correspondent respectivement trois formes de pouvoir relativement spécifiques, dont les possibilités d'altération et de transformation lient l'orientation critique de la philosophie sociale au projet d'une politique émancipatrice.

"This work seeks to provide a fresh examination of the relationship between religion, identity and security in a globalizing world, arguing that in order to address human security issues we must seek a reconceptualization of human security along post-secular lines. Religion, Identity and Human Security seeks to demonstrate that a major source of human insecurity comes from the failure of states around the world to recognize the increasing cultural diversity of their populations which has resulted from globalization. Shani begins by setting out the theoretical foundations dealing with the transformative effects of globalization on identity violence and security. The second part of the volume then draws on different cases of sites of human insecurity around the globe to develop these ideas, examining themes such as:securitization of religious symbolsretreat from multiculturalismrise of exclusivist ethno-religious identities post- 9/11state religion, colonization and the racialization of migration Highlighting that religion can be a source of both human security and insecurity in a globalizing world Shani offers a critical human security paradigm that seeks to de-secularize the individual by recognizing the culturally contested and embedded nature of human identities. The work argues that religion serves an important role in re-embedding individuals deracinated from their communities by neo-liberal globalization"--

From the beginning of the 19th Century to the present feelings of national identity and religious sentiments have coexisted in a close but ambiguous relationship. For example, national movements in Poland, French-speaking Canada and Ireland have been inextricably linked with the Roman Catholic faith. Pan-Arabism and Zionism could not exist without the underpinnings of Islam and the Jewish faith respectively.On the other hand, these same national movements have frequently been in conflict with the prevailing religious establishment. In many cases, the religious hierarchy has been at odds with nationalist currents.Moreover, often the leaders of nationalist movements were themselve either non-religious or dissenters. However, in order to succeed national movements could not ignore and, indeed, made good use of traditionalreligious feelings.There is a complex relationship between religion and nationalism, and their interplay results in both revolutionary and counter-revolutionary tendencies.
