Scholars of history, ecclesiology, theology, and politics explore issues raised by the Church of England being the official church of England. Their topics pivot on the central issues of the monarchy and the role of the monarch as Defender of the Faith; implications for the churches of the reform of the House of Lords; and equality of gender and sex and the consecration of female and gay priests to the episcopate.
