Three types of sovereignty have competed for our loyalty: divine sovereignty, political sovereignty, and the sovereignty of the self. For believers these rival sovereignties complicate the very notion of moral and civic responsibility. What solutions do African and Islamic sources offer for the discharge of the duties of citizenship and the obligations of the spiritual life? What belongs with the dual heritage of being a believer and a citizenship at the same time? How does membership in the religious community relate to membership in society? How does religion foster the common good that is essential for a viable democratic social order? These questions will guide our exploration.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
