This book identifies and examines the political activities of
selected religious actors, in both domestic and international
contexts, in relation to democracy, human rights and civilisational
interactions. And it asks why, how and when do selected religious
actors seek to influence political outcomes? The book is divided
into two parts. Section 1 examines the controversial issue of how,
why and when religious actors affect democratisation - that is, the
transition to democracy - and democracy itself. These chapters
examine the impact of religion on democratisation and human rights,
with particular attention to secularisation, Islam, and
globalisation. They indicate that numerous religious actors have
had major importance in helping determine democratisation outcomes
in various countries. Section 2 examines the relationships between
religion, human rights and civilisational interactions in the
context of post-secular politics and links to conflict, and it
explores how these relationships affect political outcomes in both
domestic and international contexts. This book will be of great
interest to postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students of
religion and politics; religion and international relations;
democratisation and democracy; and global governance, especially
studies of the United Nations. It will also interest practitioners
and scholars who work on religion and politics, at a domestic and
international level.
