Religion in Politics

In what ways can religion be political? And what role can it play? In this show, Radio UPF brings up questions on how religion relates to politics, both through opression but also as social change. We discuss how american evangelism and homophobia is connected in Uganda, reflections on Pope Francis and how he differs from previous popes, principles of Islamic Finance and liberation theology in Latin America.
