This research is a literature study that discusses and analyzes the relationship between religion and politics from the historical aspect, the development of religion in the political realm as well as the discourse between the two things. Philological analysis is used to determine the extent of the relationship between political theory and religious belief, in this case Islam. The results of the analysis illustrate that religion as the basis for political morals is no longer used as it should, but only becomes a tool to win power. In that context, the people of the State have presented themselves as an organized mass, and they are not aware that a structural crime (made in such a way) has happened to them, they are given little pleasure while others who win the power take more benefits from the State. they. Political violence has actually occurred wrapped in a certain ideology or religion, and its legitimacy has been very well tested, especially if the legitimacy is obtained through instruments under the political democratic system through general elections. General elections become a very significant relationship with the legitimacy of political power.

Lovin reviews Politics and Religion by Steve Bruce.

The interactions between religion and politics are analyzed at two crucial moments during the development of the Cold War in Guatemala. The first one is that of the October Revolution 1944-1954 and the Counterrevolution, and the second one refers to the years when violence reached its peak during the civil war, specifically 1982-1983, when Efraín Ríos Montt ruled Guatemala. The way in which religion and politics intertwined at both moments had a significant impact on the ongoing disputes around state formation. The arrangements forged between religious elites and the State facilitated processes that established the presence and sociocultural influence of the Catholic Church from the first moment on and of the evangelical churches after the second. ; Las interacciones entre religión y política son analizadas en dos momentos cruciales durante el desarrollo de la Guerra Fría en Guatemala: la Revolución de Octubre 1944-1954 y la Contrarrevolución, y los años de 1982 y 1983 cuando Efraín Ríos Montt gobernó Guatemala y la violencia alcanzó el punto más álgido durante la guerra interna. La manera en que religión y política se entrelazaron en ambos momentos tuvo un impacto significativo en las disputas que estaban en curso en torno a la transformación del Estado. Los acomodos que se forjaron entre elites religiosas y Estado facilitaron procesos que afincaron la presencia e influencia sociocultural de la Iglesia católica a partir del primer momento y de las iglesias evangélicas después del segundo.

"To many mainstream-media saturated Americans, the terms 'progressive' and 'religious' may not seem to go hand-in-hand. As religion is usually tied to conservatism, an important way in which religion and politics intersect is being overlooked. [This book] focuses on this significant intersection, revealing that progressive religious activists are a driving force in American public life, involved in almost every political issue or area of public concern. This volume brings together [contributors] who dissect and analyze the inner worlds and public strategies of progressive religious activists from the local to the transnational level. It provides insight into documented trends, reviews overlooked case studies, and assesses the varied ways in which progressive religion forces us to deconstruct common political binaries such as right/left and progress/tradition ... [This] book engages and rethinks long accepted theories of religion, of social movements, and of the role of faith in democratic politics and civic life."--
