October 15, 2008 | This event was the inaugural conference of the Berkley Center's project on The Future of Political Theologies, which inquires about the meaning of religion's role in politics, especially about the enduring way that human reflection continues in the modern West to seek legitimacy for political and legal affairs in religious narratives and first principles. Leading thinkers and practitioners from within each tradition, as well as critics from outside the traditions, came together to examine core questions at the intersection of religious pluralism and democratic politics: What are the main trends and challenges for political theologies today? How do globalization, secularization, and pluralism affect political theologies? How might political theologies change in the 21st century?
