Abstract

The “Western hemisphere” has entered the twenty-first century plagued by a resurgence of right-wing and extreme-right ideological movements which found, in their intersection with Christianity, a renewed, powerful platform to advance nativist and nationalist agendas. The scholarly debate surrounding these topics, far from having begun in the new millennium, has experienced in the last decade a new vitality and a flourishing of literature that draws from events, narratives, and political actors having their ideological roots in the twentieth century but finding heightened activity and resonance in the present moment. This issue of Ácoma is dedicated to exploring past and current manifestations of the so-called religious right in the United States and in Europe. Investigating the intersection between conservative politics, Protestantism, and Catholicism, and touching upon issues ranging from the right to abortion to what is now labeled “gender-ideology”, this issue of the journal discusses and explains the phenomenon of the religious right in the twenty-first century, and joins a conversation that is of great consequence for the times we live in.
