Rights, Religious Pluralism and the Recognition of Difference

Off the Scales of Justice

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In legal discourses on rights, freedom of religion occupies a pivotal position, receiving increasing attention from legal bodies. This book critically evaluates the emerging legal principles and standards that are applied to religious freedom in Europe. Focusing on religious pluralism as an interpretational principle stemming from attempts to define the boundaries of freedom of religion, it examines the expansion of religious pluralism as an underlying principle of different rights regimes and constitutional traditions. It is, however, the static and liberal shape this principle has assumed that is taken up critically here, to reconstruct the possibility of a true religious pluralism.
