Zusammenfassung:David Little's work on ethnoreligious nationalism and religion, human rights, and the practice of religious peace-building offers both an important corrective and a conceptual foundation for further research in comparative religious ethics and an effective contribution to the sociological and cultural study of religion, conflict, and peace. Examining the two cases of Jewish Israeli settlers and Jewish American Palestine solidarity activists, the article establishes the centrality of nationalism and the institutions and practices it authorizes as well as the relevance of religious formations, reasoning, meanings, and practices within this context.
