Theocratic Imperialism

By W. R. Inge and William Ralph Inge

Book Overview

Theocratic Imperialism is a non-fiction book written by W. R. Inge. The book explores the concept of theocracy and its relationship with imperialism. Inge argues that theocracy, which is the rule of a state by religious authorities, has historically been used as a tool for imperialistic expansion. The book provides a historical analysis of the relationship between religion and politics, focusing on the role of religion in the expansion of empires throughout history. Inge examines the relationship between theocracy and imperialism in a variety of contexts, including ancient Rome, medieval Europe, and the Islamic world. The book also explores the contemporary relevance of theocratic imperialism, particularly in the context of modern-day conflicts in the Middle East. Overall, Theocratic Imperialism offers a thought-provoking analysis of the relationship between religion and power, and the ways in which religion has been used to justify and facilitate imperialistic expansion throughout history.THIS 68 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Christian Ethics and Modern Problems, by W.
