Abstract
In this review essay, I discuss some of the arguments that Miguel Vatter develops in his book Divine Democracy. The first section articulates arguments concerning the primary contributions of democratic political theology from Vatter's standpoint and elucidates its implications for the redefinition of an old problem (the issue of sovereignty). In the second section, I navigate how Vatter's book could resonate and speak broadly within global contexts of political theologies. I finish my review essay by exploring potential future trajectories of political theologies and how the book opens new paths for comprehending the intersection of religion and politics within political theory.
