In Open Source Jihad, Per-Erik Nilsson provides a unique overview of the academic research and political legislation concerning 'Islamic terrorism' in Europe. He scrutinises in detail how the concepts 'terrorism', 'radicalisation', and 'counter-terrorism' have developed as academic objects of study and political objects of governance. In the Element, Nilsson brings to the fore systemic problems of the field of terrorism studies as well as the various anti-terrorist apparatuses developed by EU member states. Open Source Jihad should be required reading for anyone interested in current European political and social events.

Per-Erik Nilsson takes a religious studies approach to analyse the intersections of secularism, nationhood and populism in contemporary France. This book provides insight into the French and European radical-nationalist ideology and activism, and contributes to our understanding of the complex relationship between religion and the state in contemporary Europe and beyond.When Marine Le Pen became the leader of the radical nationalist and populist party National Front in 2011, she made clear that secularism was a core value of party. This signalled a significant shift in the party's rhetorical strategies and previous reluctance to embrace secularism. Nilsson argues that this conspicuous appropriation first came about as a logical result of the obsession of the established mainstream political parties and news media with questions of secularism, national identity and Islam. He shows that a key player in understanding the National Front’s change is the web-based journal Riposte Laïque, which has become a central actor in French radical-nationalist and anti-Muslim web and street-based activism. For the first time, this source is examined in order to understand French radical nationalists' recent appropriation of secularism, as well as debates on secularism, national identity and Islam in France more broadly.

The Islamic Veil Affairs (2003 4 and 2009 2011), which led to the banning of Muslim girls wearing Islamic headscarves in French public schools and women wearing full-face veils in public, have raised serious concerns about the relationship between secularism and the freedom of religious expression. In Unveiling the French Republic: National Identity, Secularism, and Islam in Contemporary France, Per-Erik Nilsson engages in a careful critical analysis of the Veil Affairs.

Hur hanterar västerländska, sekulariserade samhällen en alltmer komplex och mångsidig religion? I Reconsidering Religion, Law, and Democracy har författarna undersökt samspel och förhandlingar mellan å ena sidan religiösa organisationer och medborgare, å andra sidan staten, det juridiska systemet, media och sekulariserade medborgare. Religion påverkar fortfarande många delar av det moderna samhället men ses idag, oftare än tidigare, som en allmän angelägenhet snarare än en privat. I och med detta uppstår nya utmaningar eller möjligheter för både akademisk forskning och i samhället i stort. De medverkande i denna antologi visar vad som händer när olika religiösa uttryck möter olika områden i samhället. Författarna pekar särskilt på behovet av att utveckla en mer mångsidig förståelse av religionens roll i dagens samhälle. Genom att presentera fallstudier, nytänkande perspektiv och angelägna frågeställningar förespråkar de att en djupare kunskap kring religion bäst nås genom ytterligare och mer nyanserad tvärvetenskaplig forskning.
