Reviews
Why does sex matter to politics in the name of the people? Ludger Viefhues-Bailey argues that political Christianities both effect and emerge in the regulation of the direct and discursive reproduction of 'the people.' And he charts a way out of the crisis of democracy: the people need to put communities of care at the core of their democracies, so that more compassionate political Christianities can come about.
Vincent Lloyd, author of Black Dignity: The Struggle Against Domination:
A leading voice working at the intersection of religion, politics, and critical theory, Ludger Viefhues-Bailey probes today’s most nettlesome religious freedom dilemmas. His book moves between textured accounts of on-the-ground conflicts and sophisticated analysis, yielding a compelling account of the various ways political Christianities are entangled with populist movements today.
Shannon Craigo-Snell, author of Disciplined Hope: Prayer, Politics, and Resistance:
No Separation is revelatory. Viefhues-Bailey uses three case studies—in Germany, France, and the U.S.—to illustrate the fragile and harmful mix of Christianity and sexual norms that undergird secular democracy, and to envision a more resilient and compassionate way forward. Mind-blowing and clear, this book is essential reading.
