Tungkol sa ebook na ito

Religious Power explores how religious institutions have historically wielded power, influencing empires, laws, and conflicts. It examines religion's role as a political and cultural force, revealing how religious doctrines fueled imperial expansion and how religious ethics shaped legal systems. For instance, empires like the Roman Empire and Islamic Caliphates used religious ideologies to consolidate authority and expand their territories. The book uniquely analyzes religious influence across diverse periods and regions, identifying patterns and variations in how religious power manifests.

It progresses through sections examining empires' use of religion, the impact of religious ethics on legal systems, and religion's role in wars, from the Crusades to contemporary conflicts. Understanding this interplay between faith and socio-political structures is crucial for grasping historical events and modern global issues.

The book presents a comparative and interdisciplinary analysis, drawing from historical chronicles, legal codes, and sociological studies. It reveals how religious institutions persistently strive to exert influence beyond the spiritual realm, actively shaping political and cultural landscapes. This stems from their ability to provide moral frameworks and social cohesion, making them powerful tools for legitimizing or challenging secular authority.
