Description
Summary:A career-long focus on the intersections between religion and politics grew out of family, personal and academic interests. These influences and academic explorations led to questioning the common assumption that religion and politics should-or even can-be 'kept separate'.

These intersections and interactions take distinctive forms in Australia, meaning that we need local research that, while informed by international models, is firmly grounded in our own situation.
