Abstract
The purpose of the article is to identify the connections between religion and economic policy and analyze
them, characterizing development trends. Religion plays an important role in modern politics, and the relationship
between the two is constantly changing. The governance of a state cannot be separated from the religious
beliefs of its people, which influence the country's leaders and legislators. Laws on religious and economic policies
are reflected in society. The article highlights how religious beliefs, practices and themes are shaped by the
political expectations and needs of a nation. The work examines the relationship between religion and politics,
as well as the approach to the perception of the Christian religion. Since religion and politics are constantly
changing and adapting, the ideology underlying the relationship between these two entities is constantly being
questioned, periodically rethought and modified as a result of the ongoing process of desecularization in the
global world.
