The Geopolitics of Religious Soft Power

How States Use Religion in Foreign Policy

Herausgeber: Mandaville, Peter

Beschreibung

The Geopolitics of Religious Soft Power represents the first globally comparative study of the varying ways in which states incorporate religion and religious outreach into their external relations. Each chapter demonstrates how the history, religious culture, and geopolitical orientation of a particular country determines its capacity for using religion as part of a soft power strategy while simultaneously dictating the nature and shape of its religious outreach activities, its intended audiences, and likelihood of success or impact.
