Religious Human Rights in Global Perspectives:Religious Perspectives - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Written mostly by North American scholars of law or religion, 19 papers examine what sacred texts and church authorities in Christianity, Judaism, and Islam have to say about religious freedom. Among the topics are a historical perspective, Biblical legal thought, human rights in the church, women and children in the three religions, a Jewish tradition for respecting dissenter rights in religious communities, an apologia for religious human rights, and identity and difference in terms of religious and cultural rights. Produced by an ongoing project of the Law and Religion Program at Emory University, which also offers a sister volume exploring legal perspectives. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
