The Rule of Law and The Rule of God

| Description: | Wake Forest University invites distinguished politicians and scholars to discuss the future of law and religion in face of many challenges posed by globalization. In recent years, we have seen religion reestablishing itself as an important force to be reckoned with in the contemporary world. Once often sidelined in the West as a private matter or an antiquated estate from the past, religion seemed to be on its slow path to social insignificance. Yet, religion has proven itself to be resilient and still strong. From social conservatism to religious fundamentalism to progressive politics, religion once again wants to help shape the social and political landscape of contemporary societies. Whether and how such religious activism should be countenanced remains a matter of urgent practical importance. Law Professor Wilson Parker will be chairing a panel from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. |
| Location: | Pugh Auditorium, Benson Center |
