Subject:

Description:

T. Byrnes Exciting new ideas and research have emerged in the past decade, dealing with the complex relationship between religion and politics. At the empirical level, that research examines the role played by religious leaders and groups in democratic politics, while at the theoretical level it assesses the degree to which "religious politics" either supports or undercuts democratic values and principles. This seminar considers the many ways both politics and political science can be fruitfully analyzed by looking at them through the prism of religion.
