Constitutional Democracy and Islam (eBook, ePUB)

The Legal Status of Muslims in Italy

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book outlines the legal status of Muslims in Italy. In particular, it highlights that, when it comes to Islam, the Italian legal system exacerbates the dilemma of contemporary constitutional democracies, increasingly caught between the principle of equality and the right to have rights, which implies the respect of diversity.
