This two-volume encyclopedia brings together leading scholars to provide the most comprehensive and up-to-date resource on politics and religion ever produced. Editors in Chief Paul A. Djupe, Mark J. Rozell, and Ted G. Jelen--joined by an editorial board of associate editors (Gizem Arikan, Pazit Ben-Nun Bloom, Taylor Boas, Steven Kettell, Amy Erica Smith, and Günes Murat Tezcür)--have assembled over 100 peer-reviewed entries. In this extensive resource, readers will find authoritative overviews of the key topics, theories, and findings in religion and politics.
Social scientists have closely observed religion at multiple levels of analysis, across a long time span, and in diverse outlets. As a result, it can be difficult for new researchers and interested observers to understand the state of the field. The Oxford Encyclopedia of Politics and Religion addresses that need, and is therefore essential reading for all who seek to understand some of the most important issues and questions facing the world, including the role of regulation of religion by states, how religion is linked to civil war, whether religion is compatible with democracy, how religion structures political behavior and public opinion, how religious parties behave, and much more.
Paul A. Djupe has researched religion and politics in the United States for 25 years. He has published eight books and over 100 articles and chapters, most of them exploring some facet of religion and politics. A past editor of the journal Politics and Religion, he now edits the book series Religious Engagement in Democratic Politics and serves as an affiliated scholar with the Public Religion Research Institute.
Mark J. Rozell is the founding dean of the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University, where he holds the Ruth D. and John T. Hazel Chair in Public Policy. He is the editor of the book series Religion, Politics, and Policy, which he founded with Ted G. Jelen.
Ted G. Jelen was Professor of Political Science at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and a leading scholar of politics of religion. He was the former editor of the Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion and former coeditor of Politics and Religion. He published numerous books
and articles on religion and politics in his lifetime.
