Worldly Politics and Divine Institutions explores four instances of democratic governments becoming intertwined with religious matters: when the U.K. Supreme Court forced a government-funded faith school (the British JFS School) to change its admission policies; when The European Court of Human Rights ruled that the Catholic Church could dismiss religion teachers in Spanish public schools; when the Italian government upheld mandatory crucifixes in all public school classrooms; and the Bladensburg World War I Memorial (the Peace Cross) case in Maryland, where the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the cross's public placement did not violate the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment.
