Join us for the first Resourcing Faith study day of the academic year, hosted jointly by St Bene't's Church and Little St Mary's, Cambridge - The Many Faces of Christianism: From the 'Russian World' to the Challenge of Illiberalism in Contemporary Democracies

Can Christianity be reclaimed from populism?

Dr Mariëtta van der Tol, Research Fellow at the Faculty of Divinity, will explore questions of politics, populism, Christian nationalism, religious plurality, and the future of democracy.

Specialising in the comparative study of politics, law and religion, she leads the interdisciplinary networks ‘Religion, ethnicity and politics in German, Dutch and Anglo-American contexts: nationalism and the future of democracy’ and ‘Protestant political thought: religion, state, nation’.

Her book Constitutional Intolerance: the fashioning of 'the other' in Europe's constitutional repertoires (2024) appears in the CUP series comparative constitutional law and policy.
