This title explores some of the key issues which surround the
politics of religion, an area which has historically been the cause
of great controversy. Today religion is still the cause of a great
deal of political debate, be it the teaching of the creationist
theory in the United States or the relationship of church and state
in Arabic countries. Four sections present a thorough overview of
the politics of religion in historical perspective: Essay chapters
written by a variety of academic and other experts on the major
world religions and their relationship with politics, and on topics
including religious fundamentalism, church and state and religious
terrorism, providing background analysis of the links between
religion and politics. A - Z glossary of religions, religious
groups, ideas and issues, including entries on Agnosticism,
Bradford Council of Mosques, Muslim Brotherhood, Nirvana, the World
Council of Churches, etc. Entries are up-to-date and cross
referenced for ease of use, and symbols at the end of each entry
denote to which major religion(s) the entry refers. Maps for
reference, showing adherents to major religions worldwide,
adherents to religions in the Middle East, and adherents to the
major sub-types of Christianity. This title offers up-to-date and
unbiased information that will provide a wealth of information to
students, academics, business people and general researchers.
