"Politics & Religion: Normative Challenges & Empirical Puzzles" (original) (raw)

The paper explores the resurgence of religion in public life against the backdrop of contemporary political science, emphasizing the underexplored intersection of religion and politics. It contextualizes this resurgence within the frameworks provided by notable scholars and highlights the growth of interdisciplinary studies in this area, while suggesting that the seminar will not focus solely on religious fundamentalism but rather on a broader comparative study of religion and its role in politics.
