Book Synopsis Religion, Menschenrechte und Menschenrechtspolitik by : Antonius Liedhegener
Download or read book Religion, Menschenrechte und Menschenrechtspolitik written by Antonius Liedhegener and published by Springer-Verlag. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 60 Jahre nach der Allgemeinen Erklärung der Menschenrechte sind Menschenrechte auf dieser Welt nach wie vor keine Selbstverständlichkeit. Derzeit scheint vor allem die transkulturelle Geltung der Menschenrechte in Frage zu stehen. Im Zentrum dieses mit philosophischen und politischen Mitteln ausgetragenen Konflikts stehen vielfach Religion und Religionen. Der Band fragt nach dem Potential von Religionen zur Stärkung oder Schwächung des Menschenrechtsgedankens. Die Beiträge liefern neue Einsichten in die historischen und aktuellen Vermittlungsprozesse zwischen Religion und Menschenrechten im Christentum und in anderen Weltreligionen wie Islam, Hinduismus und Konfuzianismus. Außerdem präsentiert er erstmals eine Reihe von empirischen Fallstudien, die zeigen, in welch überraschendem Maße Religionen als politische Akteure selbst menschenrechtsrelevante Politik betreiben. Dem Zusammenhang von Religion und Menschenrechten eignet eine reale politische Kraft.
Book Synopsis Religious Communities and Civil Society in Europe by : Rupert Graf Strachwitz
Download or read book Religious Communities and Civil Society in Europe written by Rupert Graf Strachwitz and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seemingly vitalizing impact of religiosity on civil society is a research topic that has been extensively looked into, not only in the USA, but increasingly also in a European context. What is missing is an evaluation of the role of institutionalized religious communities, and of circumstances that facilitate or impede their status as civil society organisations. This anthology in 2 volumes aims at closing this gap by providing case studies regarding political, legal and historical aspects in various European countries. Vol. 2 provides some theoretical aspects, a report on the final conference, and case studies from Germany, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Poland and the Ukraine, as well as a special chapter on Brazil and a Note on Religious Political Ideology.
Book Synopsis Global Eastern Orthodoxy by : Giuseppe Giordan
Download or read book Global Eastern Orthodoxy written by Giuseppe Giordan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-19 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume highlights three intertwined aspects of the global context of Orthodox Christianity: religion, politics, and human rights. The chapters in Part I address the challenges of modern human rights discourse to Orthodox Christianity and examine conditions for active presence of Orthodox churches in the public sphere of plural societies. It suggests theoretical and empirical considerations about the relationship between politics and Orthodoxy by exploring topics such as globalization, participatory democracy, and the linkage of religious and political discourses in Russia, Greece, Belarus, Romania, and Cyprus. Part II looks at the issues of diaspora and identity in global Orthodoxy, presenting cases from Switzerland, America, Italy, and Germany. In doing so, the book ties in with the growing interest resulting from the novelty of socio-political, economic, and cultural changes which have forced religious groups and organizations to revise and redesign their own institutional structures, practices, and agendas.

Book Synopsis Europäisches und Globales Christentum / European and Global Christianity by : Katharina Kunter
Download or read book Europäisches und Globales Christentum / European and Global Christianity written by Katharina Kunter and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2011-10-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HauptbeschreibungThe historical study of Protestantism is often limited to internal or national discussions. Yet a broader, international look means also studying the major upheavals that occurred throughout the world, such as wars and globalisation. This volume first reviews the history of the church in the 20th century from an international and interdisciplinary vantage point and takes a look at the most important themes and conflicts that marked that often tension-filled time, among others the two world wars, globalisation, the broad number of continuities and discontinuities, the influence.
Book Synopsis Orthodox Religion and Politics in Contemporary Eastern Europe by : Tobias Koellner
Download or read book Orthodox Religion and Politics in Contemporary Eastern Europe written by Tobias Koellner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the relationship between Orthodox religion and politics in Eastern Europe, Russia and Georgia. It demonstrates how as these societies undergo substantial transformation Orthodox religion can be both a limiting and an enabling factor, how the relationship between religion and politics is complex, and how the spheres of religion and politics complement, reinforce, influence, and sometimes contradict each other. Considering a range of thematic issues, with examples from a wide range of countries with significant Orthodox religious groups, and setting the present situation in its full historical context the book provides a rich picture of a subject which has been too often oversimplified.
Book Synopsis Orthodox Christians and the Rights Revolution in America by : A. G. Roeber
Download or read book Orthodox Christians and the Rights Revolution in America written by A. G. Roeber and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A distinctive and unrivaled examination of North American Eastern Orthodox Christians and their encounter with the rights revolution in a pluralistic American society. From the civil rights movement of the 1950s to the “culture wars” of North America, commentators have identified the partisans bent on pursuing different “rights” claims. When religious identity surfaces as a key determinant in how the pursuit of rights occurs, both “the religious right” and “liberal” believers remain the focus of how each contributes to making rights demands. How Orthodox Christians in North America have navigated the “rights revolution,” however, remains largely unknown. From the disagreements over the rights of the First Peoples of Alaska to arguments about the rights of transgender persons, Orthodox Christians have engaged an anglo-American legal and constitutional rights tradition. But they see rights claims through the lens of an inherited focus on the dignity of the human person. In a pluralistic society and culture, Orthodox Christians, both converts and those with family roots in Orthodox countries, share with non-Orthodox fellow citizens the challenge of reconciling conflicting rights claims. Those claims do pit “religious liberty” rights claims against perceived dangers from outside the Orthodox Church. But internal disagreements about the rights of clergy and people within the Church accompany the Orthodox Christian engagement with debates over gender, sex, and marriage as well as expanding political, legal, and human rights claims. Despite their small numbers, North American Orthodox remain highly visible and their struggles influential among the more than 280 million Orthodox worldwide. Orthodox Christians and the Rights Revolution in America offers an historical analysis of this unfolding story.
Book Synopsis Toleration and Tolerance in Medieval European Literature by : Albrecht Classen
Download or read book Toleration and Tolerance in Medieval European Literature written by Albrecht Classen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toleration and Tolerance in Medieval European Literature aims to examine and unearth the critical investigations of toleration and tolerance presented in literary texts of the Middle Ages. In contrast to previous approaches, this volume identifies new methods of interpreting conventional classifications of toleration and tolerance through the emergence of multi-level voices in literary, religious, and philosophical discourses of authorities in medieval literature. Accordingly, this volume identifies two separate definitions of toleration and tolerance, the former as a representative of a majority group accepts a member of the minority group but still holds firmly to the believe that s/he is right and the other entirely wrong, and tolerance meaning that all faiths, convictions, and ideologies are treated equally, and the majority speaker is ready to accept that potentially his/her position is wrong. Applying these distinct differences in the critical investigation of interaction and representation in context, this book offers new insight into the tolerant attitudes portrayed in medieval literature of which regularly appealed, influenced and shaped popular opinions of the period.
Book Synopsis Coping with Change by : Sebastian Rimestad
Download or read book Coping with Change written by Sebastian Rimestad and published by Peter Lang D. This book was released on 2020 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book offers glimpses of Orthodox Christian dynamics in various contemporary contexts, either in Eastern and South Eastern Europe or in the USA. Contrary to long-established notions of an Orthodox fixedness and immobility, this book attempts to show how Orthodox dynamics work in various ways and on different levels, at times towards a re-traditionalisation and at times with an innovative agenda, always depending on the particular constellations of each context and on the constraints of Realpolitik. Using various theoretical perspectives and disciplinary lenses, this book mainly focuses on issues of identity, politics, and jurisdiction, and brings to the fore a variety of policies and strategies that Orthodox institutions and individual actors use in their attempt to creatively engage with the numerous challenges of modernity and the global era.
Book Synopsis Eastern Christian Approaches to Philosophy by : James Siemens
Download or read book Eastern Christian Approaches to Philosophy written by James Siemens and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-05 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With few exceptions, the field of Eastern Christian studies has primarily been concerned with historical-critical analysis, hermeneutics, and sociology. For the most part it has not attempted to bring Eastern Christian philosophy into serious engagement with contemporary thought. This volume seeks to redress the matter by bringing the Eastern Christian tradition into a meaningful dialogue with contemporary philosophy. It boasts a diverse group of scholars—specialists in ancient philosophy, analytic philosophy, and continental philosophy—who engage with a wide range of pressing issues. Among other things, it addresses such topics as contemporary atheism, the metaphysics of action, religious epistemology, the philosophy of language, bioethics, the philosophy of race, and human rights. In so doing, it aims to introduce contemporary readers to unique perspectives and novel arguments often overlooked by mainstream anglophone philosophy.
Book Synopsis Transfigured not Conformed by : Hans G. Ulrich
Download or read book Transfigured not Conformed written by Hans G. Ulrich and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-16 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moral theology of Hans G. Ulrich is presented here in English for the first time. These collected essays represent the culmination of a lifetime of reflection on Christian living from this German theologian in conversation with Luther, Bonhoeffer, and contemporary philosophers and theologians. Ulrich's ethics affirm the lively presence of the living work of God in orienting the daily life of Christians. This presence enables members of the Church to live as creatures trusting in God's promises, bearing witness in political and economic spheres, and trusting in life as a gift in response to bioethical issues. Ulrich's fresh take on living out of the promise of God yields further guidance on issues in international relations, economics, parenting, disability, and more.
Book Synopsis Values – Politics – Religion: The European Values Study by : Regina Polak
Download or read book Values – Politics – Religion: The European Values Study written by Regina Polak and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-18 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book analyses the international data of the European Values Study (EVS 1990 - 2017), with a focus on the impact of religious on political values from empirical as well as theoretical perspectives, i.e. sociology, political and cultural studies, philosophy, ethics, theology and the law. It interprets results from interdisciplinary perspectives, including the viewpoints of social ethics, sociology and cultural studies, law and practical theology. In the political and public as well as media debates of the European Union, the recourse to (above all "European" and also "Christian") values has played a central and controversial role in the field of politics and religion for several decades. This collection is a contribution to a qualified discourse on values in Europe by providing empirical, hermeneutical and ethical criteria for a responsible use of the concept of values. In addition to a comparison of political value systems in Western and Eastern Europe and the possible role of religion in this context, the book also deals with topics such as, f.i., solidarity, economics and values, value formation, and law and values. Additionally, specific population groups such as the socio-culturally marginalized strata are examined more closely. Besides current scientific analyses and interpretations of interest to researchers from various disciplines, this book also offers valuable impulses and suggestions for various multipliers in political, civil society and religious organisations, as well as a sound overview for graduate students.
Book Synopsis Menschenrechte und europäische Identität by : Klaus M. Girardet
Download or read book Menschenrechte und europäische Identität written by Klaus M. Girardet and published by Franz Steiner Verlag. This book was released on 2005 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Verflechtungen zwischen den Regionen der Welt werden gegenw�rtig rasch enger. R�umliche Entfernungen spielen eine immer geringere Rolle. Haben wir uns darauf einzustellen, da� im Gegensatz hierzu erhebliche kulturelle Distanzen bestehen bleiben, insbesondere auch tiefgreifende Differenzen der Werte- und Rechtsordnungen? Oder wird man sich wenigstens auf einen Bestand fundamentaler Rechtss�tze einigen k�nnen, wie sie in den westlichen Gesellschaften unter Bezeichnungen wie �Menschenrechte� und �human rights� zusammengefa�t werden? W�hrend die systematische Kodifizierung und institutionelle Absicherung menschenrechtlicher Normen eine neuzeitliche Errungenschaft darstellt, l��t sich deren ideengeschichtliche Verankerung viel weiter zurueckverfolgen, n�mlich bis in die Antike Europas. Spezialisten aus verschiedenen Disziplinen, von der Alten Geschichte bis zur Moraltheologie, geben in vorliegendem Sammelband zum einen Einblicke in die soziale und legislative Praxis antiker Gesellschaften unter dem Gesichtspunkt fundamentaler Rechte. Zum anderen werden auf solche Rechte bezogene Begruendungsstrategien und Philosopheme gesichtet, teils bewertet und teils auch in systematischer Absicht fortentwickelt.
Book Synopsis Menschenrechte und ihre Kritiker by : Dieter Gosewinkel
Download or read book Menschenrechte und ihre Kritiker written by Dieter Gosewinkel and published by Wallstein Verlag. This book was released on 2019-12-02 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unterschiedliche historische Spielarten der Menschenrechtskritik und deren Wirkungsgeschichte. Während die 1990er Jahre als eine Hochzeit der internationalen Menschenrechtsbewegung galten, ist die Debatte über Menschenrechte seit einigen Jahren zunehmend von Skepsis und Pessimismus geprägt. Schlagworte wie "Endzeit" oder "Dämmerung" der Menschenrechte sollen signalisieren, dass mit dem Internationalen Recht auch die Menschenrechte in eine Legitimationskrise geraten sind. Teilweise speist sich die gegenwärtige Kritik aus tagespolitischen Entwicklungen, greift vielfach aber auch auf grundsätzlichere Argumente zurück. Diese haben die Auseinandersetzung über Gehalt und Geltungskraft der Menschenrechtsidee von Anfang an begleitet. Denn schon immer war die Genese moderner Menschenrechtskonzeptionen eng mit deren jeweiligen Gegenentwürfen verwoben. Dabei lassen sich pragmatische Kritik und grundsätzliche Gegnerschaft nur selten auseinanderhalten. Menschenrechtskritik entsprang vielschichtigen Motivlagen und trat zudem in unterschiedlichen Mischungsverhältnissen und Schattierungen auf. Dieser Befund fordert dazu heraus, das Phänomen der Menschenrechtskritik zu historisieren und zu systematisieren.
