Diversos autores han llamado la atención sobre la influencia del cristianismo liberacionista en los acontecimientos más importantes de las últimas décadas en América Latina. La investigación de la que resulta el presente trabajo, enmarcada teórica y metodológicamente en el campo de la historia reciente, tiene por objetivo comprender las relaciones entre catolicismo liberacionista y política en el escenario de la efervescencia social de los años sesenta y setenta en la Argentina. El libro historiza y analiza ese proceso situándose en la ciudad de Bahía Blanca en el período 1968-1975 y focalizando en las trayectorias de los integrantes de la Juventud Universitaria Católica (JUC), la Juventud Estudiantil Católica (JEC) y la Juventud Obrera Católica (JOC).

Hauptbeschreibung Das Verhältnis von Religion und Politik ist in den vergangenen Jahren verstärkt in den Fokus der Forschung gerückt. Die Autoren dieses Bandes widmen sich diesem Verhältnis unter einer besonderen Zuspitzung. Ihre Beiträge analysieren, inwiefern es zum Selbstverständnis von Religionen gehört, einen Beitrag zur Gestaltung der gesellschaftlichen und politischen Wirklichkeit leisten zu sollen. Mit dieser Problematik verknüpft ist eine zentrale Frage: Wie erklärt und wie äußert sich der Anspruch von Religionen, eine »politische Aufgabe« zu besitzen? Im Fokus stehen die d

Why, when so driven by the impetus for autonomy, did the city elites of thirteenth-century Italy turn to men bound to religious orders whose purpose and reach stretched far beyond the boundaries of their often disputed territories ? Churchmen and Urban Government in Late Medieval Italy, c.1200-c.1450 brings together a team of international contributors to provide the first comparative response to this pivotal question. Presenting a series of urban cases and contexts, the book explores the secular-religious boundaries of the period and evaluates the role of the clergy in the administration and government of Italy's city-states. With an extensive introduction and epilogue, it exposes for consideration the beginnings of the phenomenon, the varying responses of churchmen, the reasons why practices changed and how politics and religious identity relate to each other. This important new study has significant implications for our understanding of power, negotiation, bureaucracy and religious identity.

At a time when secular liberalism is in crisis and when the civic contribution of religion is being re-assessed, the rich tradition of Christian political theology demands renewed attention. This book, based on the 2001 Bampton Lectures, explores the relationship of the church both to the state and civil institutions. Arguing that theological approaches to the state were often situated within the context of Christendom and are therefore outmoded, the author claims that a more differentiated approach can be developed by attention to the concept of civil society. The book offers a critical assessment of the effect of the First Amendment in the USA and, in a concluding chapter, it defends the case for continuing disestablishment in England and Scotland.

No account of contemporary politics can ignore religion. The liberal democratic tradition in political thought has long treated religion with some suspicion, regarding it as a source of division and instability. Faith in Politics shows how such arguments are unpersuasive and dependent on questionable empirical claims: rather than being a serious threat to democracies' legitimacy, stability and freedom, religion can be democratically constructive. Using historical cases of important religious political movements to add empirical weight, Bryan McGraw suggests that religion will remain a significant political force for the foreseeable future and that pluralist democracies would do well to welcome rather than marginalize it.

Les rapports entre religion et politique sont, à nouveau et de manière insistante, à l'avant-plan des interrogations et des débats : crise du l'État national classique et de la forme-Nation ; interrogation, dans l'espace européen, sur la plausibilité d'une identité postnationale et la construction d'une nouvelle culture politique reconnaissant, à certaines conditions, la légitimité publique des traditions religieuses dans leur teneur éthique : revendications culturelles et identitaires des minorités… Autant de phénomènes qui désignent l'émergence d'un nouveau champ politique : celui de la socialisation des individus en régime de modernité avancée. C'est à ce champ nouveau que sont confrontés mouvements religieux et grandes traditions religieuses. Le propos de la session théologique 1992 de l'École des sciences philosophiques et religieuses des F.U.S.L., dont les contributions sont reprises dans le présent volume, est d'alimenter le dossier du nouveau rapport théologico-politique qui se cherche en ordonnant des points de vue divers - et parfois divergents - autour de la triade : individu-citoyen-croyant, sans oublier, d'un point de vue catholique, le pôle collectif et communautaire qu'est l'Église, avec ses héritages et ses interrogations.

Contested Monarchy reappraises the wide-ranging and lasting transformation of the Roman monarchy between the Principate and Late Antiquity. The book takes as its focus the century from Diocletian to Theodosius I (284-395), a period during which the stability of monarchical rule depended heavily on the emperor''s mobility, on collegial or dynastic rule, and on the military resolution of internal political crises. At the same time, profound religious changes modified the premises of political interaction and symbolic communication between the emperor and his subjects, and administrative and mili

The papers presented in this volume analyse the many ways in which the Vatican, national Churches and individual catholics dealt with the rise of the extreme right in Europe throughout the 1920s, 1930s and early 1940s, from the end of the First World War, arguably one of the main catalysts of European interwar fascism, to the conclusion and immediate aftermath of the Second World War. While a number of papers focus primarily on theoretical, methodological issues pertaining to the book's general theme, the majority of papers focus on either a country or region where a fascist movement or regime flourished between the wars and during the Second World War, and where there was a significant catholic presence in society. The various chapters cover almost the entire European continent - an endeavour that is unprecedented -, and they explore a wide range of relevant contexts and methodologies, thus further contributing to the general development of an interpretive 'cluster' model that incorporates a series of investigative matrixes, and that will hopefully inspire future research.

This 2002 book attempts to overcome the traditional historiographical approach to the role of the early modern papacy by focusing on the actual mechanisms of power in the papal court. The period covered extends from the Renaissance to the aftermath of the peace of Westphalia in 1648 - after which the papacy was reduced to a mainly spiritual role. Based on research in Italian and other European archives, the book concentrates on the factions at the Roman court and in the college of cardinals. The sacred college came under great international pressure during the election of a new pope, and consequently such figures as foreign ambassadors and foreign cardinals are examined, as well as political liaisons and social contacts at court. Finally, the book includes an analysis of the ambiguous nature of Roman ceremonial, which was both religious and secular: a reflection of the power struggle both in Rome and in Europe.

Many democratic citizens, including many Christians, think that separation of religion from the state means the exclusion of religious beliefs from the political process. That view is mistaken. Both democracy and Christian faith, this 2004 book shows, call all Christians to make their beliefs effective in politics. But the discussion here differs from others. Most have trouble relating religion to democratic discussion and debate because they assume that religious differences cannot be publicly debated. Against this majority view, this book argues that Christian faith belongs in politics because it shares with democracy a full commitment to rational pursuit of the truth. The book then develops ideals of justice and the common good Christians should advocate within the democratic process and shows the difference they make for contemporary politics in the United States, focusing specifically on issues of abortion, affirmative action, and economic distribution.
