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.

Excellent mineral sunscreen for sensitive skin.
Set name: Tube - 3 oz.
I’ve been using the Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen, and it’s become a staple in my routine. As someone with sensitive skin, I really appreciate that it’s fragrance-free and uses zinc oxide, providing great protection without causing any irritation or breakouts. It goes on smoothly, isn't overly greasy, and the water resistance holds up well for outdoor activities. The smart cap technology is a nice touch, too. Highly recommended if you’re looking for effective, non-irritating sun protection.

No chemicals that will be harmful!
Set name: Tube - 5 oz. 2-Pack
Ordered this mineral sunscreen looking for something simple and effective, and it’s been a solid option so far. The zinc oxide formula is the main reason I went with it. It doesn’t rely on the same chemical ingredients found in a lot of other sunscreens, which is a big plus if you’re trying to avoid that. It feels like a cleaner option overall. Coverage is good. It spreads evenly and holds up well, even with some water exposure. I’ve used it outdoors for extended periods, and it does its job without needing constant reapplication. It does leave a slight white cast at first, which is pretty typical with mineral sunscreens, but it fades in as you rub it in. Not completely invisible, but manageable. After a few uses, what stood out most is that it doesn’t have a strong smell and doesn’t irritate the skin. It just works without a lot of extras. Compared to standard chemical sunscreens, this feels more straightforward and less harsh, especially for regular use. For the price, it’s a great value. You’re getting strong sun protection without the added ingredients some people try to avoid. If you’re looking for a mineral-based sunscreen that’s effective and a bit cleaner in formulation, this is a solid choice.

Great mineral sunscreen that actually works
Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 has become my daily go-to. It goes on smooth, doesn’t leave a weird white cast like some mineral sunscreens, and gives solid protection. I like that it’s 100% mineral with no harsh chemicals and has organic aloe vera in it, so my skin feels hydrated instead of dried out. No greasy feeling, no strong scent, and it holds up well even when I sweat a bit. Been using it for a few weeks now and it performs exactly how I want. Small bottle but a little goes a long way. Definitely recommend if you want a simple, effective mineral option.

Gentle, hydrating with a slight white cast
Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
Really solid mineral sunscreen. Goes on smooth, not too thick, and feels lightweight but still hydrating. It does leave a slight white cast, which I actually like since it feels like better protection. The formula feels gentle and doesn’t irritate my skin. Great for daily use, and the UV color-changing cap is a nice bonus. Would repurchase.
