RC43 - Religion and Politics focuses on global, regional and local interactions between religion and politics throughout the world. Political ideas and policies relevant to different religions (particularly, but not exclusively, those with global adherents) are examined. Public religion in contemporary culture and society is studied, particularly in relation to peace, development, human rights, environment, political processes, political organizations, and identity.
