Religion And Authoritarianism: Cooperation, Conflict, And The Consequences (Cambridge Studies In Social Theory, Religion And Politics)

This book examines the political consequences of growing religiosity in countries where politics are repressive and religious freedoms are in flux. The study compares how two authoritarian regimes - Russia and China - manage religion and how religious communities navigate restrictive political environments to pursue their own spiritual and economic interests.
