Religion and the Politics of Development

The relationship between religion and politics is currently the subject of heated debate, not only in academic books and essays, but also at conferences and in the programmes of political foundations. Man could not remain without a creator of the phenomenal world of many fold things. This book offers a comprehensive overview of the many theories of religion and politics and provides students with an accessible, in-depth guide to the subject’s most significant debates, issues and methodologies. It brings emerging research on religion and development into conversation with politics. It also examines how social scientists see religion and why religion remains relevant to politics in the modern era.
