Focusing on religions such as Islam and Buddhism, this volume shows
how religion influences politics and vice versa. Delving into such
subjects as the separation of church and state in the United
States, the domination of the state by religion in Iran, and the
control of religion by the state in China, this survey illuminates
cultural differences. This book gives a revealing look at the
numerous relationships between religion and politics. In the Church
of England, for example, the 26 most senior Anglican bishops have
seats in the House of Lords. Religion and Politics also includes
biographical sketches of thinkers and doers whose careers
intersected religion and politics in significant ways, from the
Berrigan brothers to Osama bin Laden. Also included are data and
quotes, a directory of politically active religious groups, and a
150 page annotated bibliography. Further research is aided by
annotated listings of print and nonprint resources, websites, and
organizations affiliated with the religious right as well as those
in opposition Biographies of significant men and women and an
up-to-date chronology illuminate the issues
