Religious Appeals in Power Politics

Religious Appeals in Power Politics explores how states utilize faith-based rhetoric to pursue political goals, illustrating this dynamic through case studies of the United States, Saudi Arabia, and Russia. The book reveals that religion can serve as a powerful, often underestimated tool in international relations, especially during pivotal moments in history. By examining instances such as the U.S. post-9/11 response and regional rivalries, the author underscores the influence and complexities of religious appeals in shaping global politics.
