Discover 'The Secular State Under Siege', a compelling exploration of the intricate relationship between religion and politics in the modern world. This brand new edition, published by John Wiley & Sons in 2015, dives into the historical and theoretical underpinnings that shape current debates surrounding secularism. It addresses the pressing issues raised by the resurgence of public religion in both Western Europe and North America, offering a nuanced analysis of the challenges faced by secular governance today.

In 'The Secular State Under Siege', author Joppke presents a rigorous examination of how Christianity and Islam interact with political authority and the implications of their conflicting ideologies. This 240-page book meticulously unravels the complexities of secularization, illustrating how it is uniquely tied to the historical development of Latin Christianity. It specifically highlights the phenomena of the Christian Right in America and the rise of Islamic claims within European societies, both of which challenge the established separation between state and religion.

Ideal for advanced students, researchers, and the intellectually curious, this volume is an essential resource for understanding the intersections of religion, law, and politics. Whether your interests lie in political theory, social sciences, or contemporary legal studies, this book will deepen your understanding of the secular state's vulnerabilities in the face of rising public religious sentiments.

Description:


Throughout human history, religion and politics have entertained the most intimate of connections as systems of authority regulating individuals and society. While the two have come apart through the process of secularization, secularism is challenged today by the return of public religion. This cogent analysis unravels the nature of the connection, disconnection, and attempted reconnection between religion and politics in the West.In a comparison of Western Europe and North America, Christianity and Islam, Joppke advances far-reaching theoretical, historical, and comparative-political arguments. With respect to theory, it is argued that only a śsubstantiveť concept of religion, as pertaining to the existence of supra-human powers, opens up the possibility of a historical-comparative perspective on religion. At the level of history, secularization is shown to be the distinct outcome of Latin Christianity itself. And at the level of comparative politics, the Christian Right in America which has attacked the śwall of separationť between religion and state and Islam in Europe with the controversial insistence on sharia law and other śilliberalť claims from some quarters are taken to be counterpart incarnations of public religion and challenges to the secular state.This clearly argued, sweeping book will provide an invaluable framework for approaching an array of critical issues at the intersection of religion, law and politics for advanced students and researchers across the social sciences and legal studies, as well as for the interested public.

If I could I’d rate this case with a 10+
Color: Pink
I’ve bought this case twice so far. It’s managed to maintain my iPad for a whole year now, never have to remove it, so you don’t need to replace it. My first one was on my iPad for about 8months before it finally managed to leak some hair or tobacco inside the screen protector which irritated me so I removed it, cleaned my iPad and purchased another case, that I HATED. So I bought this one again and throughout the other one I purchased. This case is worth it. I’ve dropped my iPad off high places, and it has smashed onto some hard surfaces, but this case has been my iPads guardian angel💖

Nice
It looks just like what it looks like in the photo but after a while the blue turned a brownish color and the back holder broke. It’s not very waterproof either but overall it’s a good product.

Great fun protection!
This case gets used.. more than it should. Stand is still working great. Coloring is definitely tinted a bit but it still looks good on a gen 10 iPad.

Weak penholder/only 1 stand position
I got this case for my iPad I use for medical school and it fits great, no issue there. My only complaints about it are that the Apple pencil holder slot doesn't have a great hold, which is fine if your device is mostly stationary, but I worry about losing the pencil in the future when walking around at clinical rotations. They should have put it on the other side of the device where the built-in magnet is so that there was some sort of internal holding force while not making the case any more bulky. The kickstand has a nice hold when locked into place, but there is unfortunately only one angle that it does lock into place, all others it tends to slide sometimes.
