Explanation:

Questions concerning the place of religion in politics and public life have taken on renewed significance in numerous contexts in the twenty-first century, particularly within the discipline of international relations (IR). Despite the enduring influence of religion in the international sphere, discussion of religion in IR is often still influenced by a notable ‘secular bias’, ‘the unquestioned acceptance of the secularist division between religion and politics’.1 Yet, the dominance of this secularist bias is increasingly being challenged and scholars are beginning to explore alternative ways of conceptualising the relationships between the religious and the political. This special issue makes a specific contribution to this recent turn within IR by noting and interrogating the multiple ways in which the boundaries between the religious and the political blur in contemporary politics. Our contributors explore the multifarious dimensions of this critical issue by asking whether the relationship between religion and politics has taken on significant new forms and dimensions in our contemporary globalised age or if we are simply beginning to recognise a pattern that has always been present. Are the contributions to substantive political issues by religious actors a new development, a reclaiming of a past heritage or, in fact, the result of a recognition by scholars and practitioners alike that secularism does not have a monopoly on the best ways in which to approach the key questions related to collective human existence? Our contributors offer answers to these and other related questions, examined across diverse cultural and political settings at the local, national, regional and global levels. In this way, this special issue further contributes to the important task of moving IR beyond its traditional secular, state-based frameworks for analysis.

In this introduction we canvass some 

of the parameters of current debates on the religious and the political. We note that there are multiple and (at times) competing understandings of such key terms as religion, secularism, secularisation and the post-secular that shape and are shaped by ongoing discussions of the relationship between religion and public life. Our goal is not to close down these important points of difference through the imposition of singular understandings. We simply wish to highlight the points of contestation that continue to be significant for how we understand (or obscure) the boundaries between the religious and the political.
