THE 381 The Church & the State
This course invites students to explore and to consider a variety of responses to the question of the relationship between Church and the polis/state/nation. Materials are drawn from a range of disciplines—from theology to philosophy, political science, and law. Emphasis is given to introducing students to the subject in a way that is accessible for discussion without prior background. Classes may be taught in an in-class, hybrid, or online format. Some designated hybrid and online courses have set times that require virtual participation. (May be taught concurrently with THE 617)
