Cathy Byrne presents the secular principle as a guiding compass for religion in government schools in plural democracies. Using in-depth case studies, historical and contextual research from Australia, and comparisons with other developed nations, Religion in Secular Education provides a comprehensive, at times confronting, analysis of the ideologies, policies, pedagogies, and practices for state-school religion. In the context of rising demands for students to develop intercultural competence and interreligious literacy, and alongside increasing Christian evangelism in the public arena, this book highlights risks and implications as education develops religious identity – in individual children and in nation states. Byrne proposes a best practice framework for nations attempting to navigate towards socially inclusive outcomes and critical thinking in religions education policy.

Y a t-il, du Moyen Age à l'époque contemporaine, une asymétrie des relations entre confessions et nations qui caractérise les chrétientés grecque et latine en Europe ? Le présent volume réunit quinze contributions sur ce sujet et deux à titre de comparaison avec d'autres zones géographiques. Chez les chrétiens orthodoxes, la terre russe et son peuple sont sacrés ; dès le Moyen Age, on célèbre la " Sainte Russie " qui, "Nouvelle Jérusalem ", est en réalité une Terre sainte transposée sur la Rus'. Au contraire, chez les latins c'est à la forme de l'Etat - Empires respectueux des réalités territoriales ou monarchies - qui trouve dans la religion son fondement obligeant ainsi les sujets à être fidèles à leur souverain. Restent des formes intermédiaires qui se trouvent dans les nations multiconfessionnelles telles la Confédération polono-lituanienne de l'époque moderne ou le projet d'Ukraine de l'époque contemporaine. Quant au monde latin, à l'époque contemporaine, il évolue sur son territoire vers la définition laïque de la nation alors que dans ses colonies il s'appuie sur l'action des Ordres catholiques pour s'implanter. Enfin, hors du monde chrétien, le Japon présente avec le confucianisme un exemple d'instrumentalisation du domaine spirituel par les élites au profit de l'ordre social.

Babylon is a surprisingly multivalent symbol in U.S. culture and politics. Political citations of Babylon range widely, from torture at Abu Ghraib to depictions of Hollywood glamour and decadence. In political discourse, Babylon appears in conservative ruminations on democratic law, liberal appeals to unity, Tea Party warnings about equality, and religious advocacy for family values. A composite biblical figure, Babylon is used to celebrate diversity and also to condemn it, to sell sexuality and to regulate it, to galvanize war and to worry about imperialism. Erin Runions explores the significance of these shifts and contradictions, arguing that together they reveal a theopolitics that tries to balance the drive for U.S. dominance with the countervailing ideals and subjectivities of economic globalization. Examining the confluence of cultural formations, biblical interpretations, and (bio)political philosophies, The Babylon Complex shows how theopolitical arguments for war, sexual regulation, and political control both assuage and contribute to anxieties about waning national sovereignty. Theoretically sophisticated and engaging, this remarkable book complicates our understanding of how the Bible affects U.S political ideals and subjectivities.
