520 |a This article explores how religion is invoked as a political weapon in Europe's highly secularized societies. It claims that the new European populism has succeeded in rhetorically reconciling Christianity and a peculiar form of secularism as markers of a "civilized" identity, while merging Islam and specific "Oriental" ethnic features as the key signs of barbarism. As a result, the new cleavage does not run along the classic dichotomy of religious vs. secular, but resurrects the colonial division between the civilized and the barbaric, both of which contain religious and non-religious elements.
