The religion has returned to public life and "Religeopolitics" (DIEEEA33-2017)

In contrast to the widespread belief in the Western secular world that religion is a matter of the past, reality has evidenced that religion has returned to public life, thereby overcoming the Westphalia presumption in terms that the modern era would become more secular and religion would be relegated to private life, having no influence in politics anymore. After 9/11, religion has become the main motivation to justify certain actions –committed by terrorist and also by some governments- which have made religion interrelated with geopolitics and launched "Religeopolitics" as a dicipline.
