With God for Fatherland and Humanity is the first comprehensive study of the internationalism of freemasons. It examines with a focus on Germany England France and Italy how European masonic umbrella associations worked for or against a worldwide organisation of their brotherhood. Against the backdrop of nation-state confrontation colonial expansion and anti-masonic agitation camps and alliance systems gradually developed. The transnational attempts at organization before and after the First World War intensified the contrasts that they actually wanted to overcome. The main causes of controversy were the question of whether freemasonry should have a religious or a secular-agnostic basis and which socio-political concerns - such as peacekeeping or charity - freemasonry should devote itself to. The Masonic form of internationalism thus appears as an exciting experimental field for civil society cooperation and differentiation in Europe.
