Religion in Public Spaces (eBook, PDF)

A European Perspective
Redaktion: Ferrari, Silvio; Pastorelli, Sabrina

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

With contributions from some of the leading experts in the area of law and religion and covering a range of very different European countries including Turkey, the UK, Italy and Bulgaria, this book uses comparative case studies to illustrate how practice varies significantly even within Europe. It reveals how familiarization with religious and philosophical diversity in Europe should lead to the modification of legal frameworks historically designed to accommodate majority religions. This in turn should give rise to recognition of new groups and communities and eventually, a more adequate response to the plurality of religions and beliefs in European society.
