{"product_id":"2940158700286","title":"Religion and Politics","description":"In 1919 Wilhelm Sollmann, as one of the founders of the German republic, became a member of the National Assembly in Weimar. He influenced the final draft of the constitution, especially the articles on education, religious freedom, and the relations between state and churches. For some time he served as commissioner of the government of the republic to the High Command of the army in cooperation with General Field Marshall von Hindenburg. He belonged to the staff of the German Peace Delegation in Versailles. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this pamphlet Sollmann reflects that \"in a world aflame with hatred and revenge men are pondering over the relation between religion and politics.\" He maintains that it is difficult to conceive how anyone in the light of events today can exclude politics from the realm of religion. By politics I mean the relations among the citizens of a nation and between the nations of mankind. To ignore these relations is to be indifferent toward the integration or disintegration of society; it is to leave to irreligious people decisions about peace and war between social groups and nations; it is to waive responsibility for religious freedom or persecution.","brand":"Pendle Hill Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47071826575600,"sku":"2940158700286","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940158700286_p0.jpg?v=1764118118","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940158700286","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
