Religion and religious diversity appear to be one of the toughest diversity challenges societies face today in their search for identity, equality, and cohesion in an increasingly globalised world. It has been argued that religious identity comprises one of the most important dimensions of discrimination today (Modood, 2013), and indeed religion in certain contexts appears to be a stronger identity register than national or ethnic identity and belonging. Yet, the increased mobility and (super) diversity fostered by globalisation has not seen the realisation of the predicament of the decline of the nation- state, but has rather led to the re-emergence of the nation as a relevant political community and point of reference for identification and belonging (Triandafyllidou, 2017).
