You can read more about it <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenne\/research\/religious-appeals-in-power-politics\/\">here<\/a>. I have also begun a project, funded by Notre Dame&#8217;s Global Religion Research Institute, that explores the use of relational frameworks and network analysis to understand international religious politics; read more <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenne\/research\/religion-state-connections-and-international-relations\/hierarchical-struggles-in-the-middle-east\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My earlier work looked at how religion-state connections affect international relations. The theory is most clearly developed in my book, <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/us\/academic\/subjects\/politics-international-relations\/international-relations-and-international-organisations\/islamic-politics-muslim-states-and-counterterrorism-tensions?format=HB\">Islamic Politics, Muslim States and Counterterrorism Tensions<\/a>&nbsp;<\/em>(published in March 2017 by Cambridge University Press). I discuss it further <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenne\/research\/religion-state-connections-and-international-relations\/islamic-politics-muslim-states-and-counterterrorism-tensions\/\">here<\/a>.
