englischIn this volume, theories and concepts on religion and politics from current debates are analysed and discussed in an interdisciplinary manner. The articles it contains represent current research positions from theology, sociology and religious studies, and can be seen as a joint effort that contributes to one of today’s dominant cross-disciplinary research questions.

The first section discusses models that interpret the relationship between religion and politics and help to understand political phenomena from theological, religious–philosophical and sociological perspectives. The volume focuses on several studies about the social dimension of the new relationship between politics and religion. These articles discuss the possibilities of interacting in and with society against a backdrop of political and religious tensions, examining the role of institutions and law especially. In a concluding section, the authors take a look at exemplary cultural contexts. Articles about America, Europe and the Middle East open up a global perspective necessary to venture into an area of conflict far beyond the boundaries of national societies. Among the contributions is a so far unpublished lecture by the theologian Hans Joachim Iwand.
