Stating the Sacred: Religion, China, and the Formation of the Nation-State
Walsh, Michael (Associate Professor, Vassar College)
Stating the Sacred offers a novel approach to nation-state formation, arguing that its most critical element is how the state sacralizes the nation. Focusing primarily on China, Michael J. Walsh argues that the foundational role of the sacred makes all nation-states religious states.
