520 |a In the context of the revival of public religion since the 1960s, the globalisation of the western world has forced Orthodox Christianity and Islam to make a choice between secularisation and modernisation or fundamentalism. Many have chosen the route of fundamentalism, leading to what Bassam Tibi sees as an inherent challenge to the nation-state system. The universalism of these two religions, represented in the concepts of the umma and the ecclesia, undermines the ideological bases on which the nation-state system rests. Consulting the thought of two of the leading anti-western Orthodox and Islamic thinkers, Christos Yannaras and Sayyid Qutb, will provide justification of this theory. Furthermore, I argue that the fundamentalist or neo-orthodox thought represented by these thinkers is itself a product of modernity, offering alternative modern projects to the secularisation thesis that has dominated the social science literature. Globalisation and modernisation do not necessarily lead to secularisation but may elicit fundamentalist responses that offer alternatives to the modernist project itself.
