Abstract:
Abstract For the last thirty-five years, the majority of Japanese wedding ceremonies have involved Christianity, but scholars have struggled with Christianity’s increasingly prominent place within the Japanese religious landscape. The tendency has been to refute the religiosity of Christian weddings and embrace the rhetoric of Japanese essentialism. However, following its prohibition in 1612, the ongoing “eradication” of Christianity defined the very nature of Japanese subjecthood, made Christianity indispensable to the Japanese state, and entrenched ritualized acts of disassociation from the

Abstract:
Steven D. Smith persuasively shows that paganism and Christianity are in a culture war that spans two thousand years. Throughout his book, he shows that Christianity is the exceptional religion in three ways. First, Christianity is more authentically open to philosophy than paganism. Second, Christianity does not sacralize the State. Third, Christianity provides a more fulfilling understanding of sexual ethics. Despite the exceptionalism of Christianity, it is currently facing a significant challenge from a renewed and secularized paganism. This secularized paganism is attractive due to the fa

Abstract:
Tocqueville saw democracy as a form of government and society that was basically valid yet liable to produce unpleasant, even disastrous, surprises. Today we may look on one of the major manifestations of democracy, the welfare state, in like fashion. Although it marks an enhancement of economic justice, it has had some disturbing consequences. These include the rise of an immense federal bureaucracy and (if we understand the welfare state as comprising the phenomenon of “consumer capitalism”) a trivialization of liberty and public life. What, then, must we do? I suggest in this article that C

Abstract:
In Pagans & Christians in the City, Steven D. Smith argues that in contrast to ancient Rome, ancient Christianity, following Judaism, located the sacred outside the world, desacralizing the cosmos and everything in it—including the political order. It thereby introduced a political dualism and potentially contending allegiances. Although Smith’s argument is right so far as it goes, it underplays the role of Christianity’s immanent dimension in subverting the Roman empire and the sacral pattern of antiquity. This division of authority not only undermined the Roman empire and antique sacral

The aim of the study is to analyse the form of Slovak culture, which has been linked to Christianity for over a thousand years but has undergone considerable development in recent decades. It is confirmed that the bond between Christianity and culture was not only historically conditioned, but also academically reflected and programmatically formed even in the first half of 20th century. However, communism and secularization brought about changes that affected the original form of culture and influenced the distanced approach to culture from the side of Christianity.

Previous research has, however, not to any larger extent examined the role of religion when analysing the work of so-called welfare experts.

Chapter 1: I construct a synthetic reading of the political works of John Howard Yoder, demonstrating that they offer a theological doctrine of the state, counter to the received opinion of Yoder scholarship. While human social life is deemed entirely political, the concept of principalities and powers is shown to be key to understanding Yoder's conception of the state. Further, Yoder demonstrates an apocalyptic political theology, which, as well as waiting on God's action, is also empowered to act in the created realm in the present, secular age.

This thesis explores how Christianity, the religion of a small number of people in India, played a significant role in shaping India’s state policies towards religion, and the culture of modern Indian public life. Rather than evaluate whether India is ‘secular’ or not, this thesis investigates the particular details of modern India’s relation with religion. It is argued that these particularities are best explained with reference to a history of social competition, in which sectarianism, including Christian sectarianism, played a major role.

Chapter one introduces the reasons for the choice of this study and the aims, purpose, and methodology of the research.
