Product Description
This book argues that despite the tensions existing in all societies between religious faith and legal order, they inevitably interact. In the course of his discussion Berman traces the history of Western law, exposes the fallacies of law theories that fail to take religion into account, looks at key theological, prophetic, and educational themes, and looks at the role of religion in the Soviet and post-Soviet state.
