"Was wird aus Religion? Dazu gibt es weit ausgreifende Theorien, die meist auf "ung" enden: Säkularisierung, Pluralisierung, Individualisierung … Es sind Blicke aus der Vogelperspektive. Doch wie fühlt sich, was sich da wandelt, eigentlich aus der Nähe an, aus der Sicht derer, denen ihre Religion wirklich etwas bedeutet? Wie erleben sie den religiösen Wandel, die Transformationen in der Architektur des Religiösen? Wie irritierend ist das? Wie enttäuschend? Wie befreiend vielleicht auch? In welche Richtung zeigt die Entwicklung? Werden verbindliche Glaubensüberzeugungen noch eine Rolle spielen? Wird Religion nur noch von ästhetischem oder gar folkloristischem Interesse sein? Wird man Religion vielleicht eher als Ausdruck starker Emotionen und Intuitionen verstehen? Oder ganz praktisch vor allem als Impuls zu einer Praxis der Nächstenliebe und der Solidarität? Ausgehend von Beobachtungen und Fallgeschichten diskutiert das Buch verschiedene Möglichkeiten der Entwicklung. Was also wird aus Religion? Und wie können die, denen an ihr gelegen ist, dazu beitragen, dass Religion nicht trivial wird?" (Verlagsinformation)

Political science is in same time old and young science. Old, if we have in mind politics as subject of research, and young if we think about institutions in which politics is only subject of research or education. Having in mind religion as subject of political science research, we can easily conclude that all books in early history of mankind, which were dedicated to political topics, had for the first subject religion. That is clear if we remember that first forms of political organizations in old Babylon, Egypt and Israel are inseparable connected with gods. Gods gave legitimacy to those states. But so political science institutions in generally so political sciences of religions, or politologie des religions in French, was born late. The first subjects of research in political sciences institutions were: state, political regimes, political parties, theory of politics, political systems, etc. Religion was studied very rarely. Modern political science was born under influence of French intellectuals: Diderot, Rousseau, Voltaire etc. They considered that religion will disappear with education and development. Their compatriot Alexis de Tocqueville thought contrary to their prognosis. The time gave right to Tocqueville. In the second part of XX century when the world development was the highest, religion maintained its position in big part of globe and became stronger in a lot of states. That created big challenge for political science. Many of political scientists started with research concerning influence of religion into politics. That create, as the first step, centres for research of relations among religion and politics as is labaratoire RELIGION ET POLITIQUE at Institute d'etudes politiques in Paris or l'Observatoire du Religieux at Institut d'etudes politique in Aix EN Provence en Frence, and finally that created special scientific discipline among political sciences which name is Religion and politics, Political Science if Religion, Politologie of Religion or Politologie des religions in French. Politologia della religione in italien or Religionspolitologie in German.Key words: Religion, Politics, Political Science, Development, Lecturing
