"My argument contributes to the sequencing debate... by suggesting a “population-first” perspective... the creation of a religiously homogeneous population, the “demos” of democracy, went hand in hand with the formation of parliaments." journalofdemocracy.org/articles/relig… via Journal of Democracy

Özetle, iddiam şu ki İngiltere & Fransa dahil Batıda demokrasinin temeli tüm toplumun tek din ve tek mezhepten oluşmasının sağlanmasıydı. Katolik Hristiyan olmayan azınlıkların yok edildiği süreçte İngiltere & Fransa ilk ve en köklü parlamentolarını kurdu. journalofdemocracy.org/articles/relig…
