THE IMPACT OF RELIGION ON VOTING BEHAVIOR
Purpose: This study investigates the influence of religion on the voting behavior of the electorates of district Buner of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the 2013 general elections. The study empirically reveals the inclination of the people while considering religion as a determinant of voting behavior. Methodology: Data for this work has been collected through a personally administered structured questionnaire. A sample representative size of 385 respondents was selected through a multi-stage-sample-method in a survey. SPSS (Statistical package for social sciences) version 21 has been used for the determination of P-value through the Chi-Square test. Results: This investigation contended that voters consider religion as a significant determinant of voting behavior. They also support the participation of Ulama (religious scholars) in politics. Further, the study discovered that the majority of the electorates do not keep the religious affairs of the candidate in mind while making their choices. On polling day, the role of religion does not significantly affect the preferences of the people. Applications: Results of the study shows that religion and voting behavior are interrelated. While analyzing electoral politics and voting choices, it is pertinent to consider the religion of the electorates. Novelty/Originality: Electorates favor the role of religion in politics, but on polling day, majority voters do not care about religion.

"The worker deserves his wages"? Religion and support for organized labor in the U.S. Senate
In: Politics and religion: official journal of the APSA Organized Section on Religion and Politics, Volume 16, Issue 1, p. 160-179
ISSN: 1755-0491
AbstractThis article examines the relationship between senators' personal religious affiliations and their roll-call voting record on organized labor's policy agenda. While an impressive body of literature now demonstrates clear connections between religion and representation in the U.S. Congress, fewer studies have linked religion to issues outside of the realm of cultural and moral policy. Based on a data set spanning 1980 through 2020, our findings show that evangelical Protestants are significantly the most opposed to organized labor's legislative agenda, while Jewish senators are the most supportive. Other religions fall in between, depending on the decade. The findings imply that the reach of religion in Congress may run even deeper than is commonly understood. It extends beyond the culture wars to one of the most salient issue cleavages in the modern history of the American politics.

The rhetoric and politics of liberty
In: Social science quarterly, Volume 70, Issue Dec 89
ISSN: 0038-4941
Examines the various definitions associated with the notion of liberty, as well as the ways in which these definitions reflect the concrete political preferences of their exponents. Suggests a possible revised understanding of freedom--an understanding that is both in harmony with libertarian proper and prescriptive for a liberal politics. (Abstract amended)
