      The book explores the contentious relationship between religion and politics in late 20th-century liberal democracies, challenging the notion of state neutrality towards religious beliefs. It delves into political theology, analyzing how political and legal concepts have theological roots, and argues for the integration of religion into democratic life. By examining the implications of these connections, it questions the foundations of contemporary democracy and its reliance on theological assumptions, offering a critical perspective on the evolving role of religion in the public sphere.
