“…[1] Hayden and his co-authors have recently modified the model of what Hayden calls "antagonistic tolerance" to suggest that tolerance of the practices of another can be allowed in sites or locales belonging to a dominant religion as long as the other's power is inconsequential and presents no threat to that hegemony (Hayden et al 2010). This emergence of an "exception" in Hayden's model is paralleled in Hassner's work by his assertion that sacred terrain can be shared when sites are "of exceeding low centrality and vulnerability" (Hassner 2009: 12) becoming therefore "far less attractive targets for outsiders intent on attacking the financial or political core of the community" (Hassner 2009: 28).…”

“In Dubious Battle on the Plains of Heav'n”: The Politics of Possession in Jerusalem's Holy Sepulchre

Debates about the "divisibility" or "sharing" of religious sites continue to engage historians, political scientists and anthropologists. This paper assesses the issue of agency in two of the more salient critiques of religious coexistence before approaching the Holy Sepulchre, or Anastasis, as a site for investigating the way various constituencies, most significantly visiting pilgrims and resident monks, have dealt with issues of "sharing". It contends that inter-communal antagonisms there originate with elite struggles over the possessions of places-struggles which tend to engage political actors far from the site of the conflicts rather than local communities-and concludes that, rather than accept an "identitarian politics" which assumes a profound "civilisational" attachment of cultures to religious identities, we must carefully assess the "politics of possession" which variously play out in sites of inter-communal engagement.

“…The emphasis on sharing and coexistence also parallels recent work in anthropology on the sharing of sacred space (Albera and Couroucli ; Bowman ), which explicitly aims to counter models of interreligious interaction in the Balkans, among other regions, that emphasize an inherent antagonism between religious communities (Hayden ; Hayden et al. ).…”

The “Balkan Tale” project includes an exhibit of photographs of Ottoman‐era buildings, texts by historians from the region, and a documentary film on the Balkan wars of 1912–13. Installations include a “soundwalk” and an experience of Ottoman perfumes. Materials are available in English, Albanian, Greek, German, Serbian, Macedonian, and Turkish. The project premises that various peoples of the region lived peacefully together before the creation of nation‐states and promotes a common history based on religious and ethnic coexistence. Yet such a proposition is as much an invention of a putative tradition as any nationalist history, ignoring relevant scholarship on the complexities of parallel and at times conflicting existences during Ottoman rule. The presentation echoes trendy anthropological theories on the fluidity of borders but neglects, or rejects, dominant concepts held by peoples in the region about themselves and each other, as well as scholarship that posits alternative conceptualizations of putative Ottoman proto‐multiculturalism.

These studies document the existence of mutualistic relations negotiated over time which have in some cases led to syncretic combinations of religious practices, even it may not be possible to speak of truly egalitarian relationships.…”

"Religious diversity : first reflections on public manifestations and controversies

abstract. The article presents a preliminary sketch of various approaches to religious diversity in contemporary societies. It argues that religious diversity is shaped by three important factors: the specific historical trajectory of a country's religious field, recent changes in the societies of the Global North through migration and the influx of "foreign" religions at an unprecedented scale, and the increasing relevance of the circulation of religious discourses and images in public life
