Introduction

Religious Diversity in a Global Religious Field Enzo Pace 1, * *ID and Alberto Da Silva Moreira 2Galilean School of Higher Education, University of Padua, Via Cesarotti 12, 35123 Padova, ItalyProgram in Religion Sciences, Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Goiás, Av. At the end of the civil war, a new Buddhist movement (Bodu Bala Sena, literally: The Force of the Buddhist Power), founded in 2012 and led by two monks, has mobilized the Sinhala people against Muslims and Evangelicals who are regarded as the new enemies of the religious roots (i.e., Buddhism) of Sri Lanka’s national identity. In many societies, such as Brazil, religion plays an important role in the public domain but without acting as the carrier of nationalism or ethnic identity as may be the case in Russia and India.
