LAW 812: Faith, Politics, and War
The intersection between religion and politics, especially its form within local communities of the South, is the subject of this multidisciplinary seminar. The course bridges the social sciences and humanities to investigate how local cultural and religious forces propel citizens toward political decisions and actions, providing an empirical as well as theoretical foundation to the analysis. A number of topics will be pursued with primary focus on the problem of war. The course is team taught by faculty from the Law School, College of Arts and Sciences, Divinity School, and Peabody College. Enrollment limited. [3]
