Book Synopsis Religious Freedom in the Global South by : Waheeda Amien
Download or read book Religious Freedom in the Global South written by Waheeda Amien and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to create a space for contributions on religious freedom in the Global South. The contributions speak to diverse themes underscoring religious freedom in the Global South including the impact of religious freedom on majority and minority religious communities, the relationship between religious freedom and the state, and the relationship between religious freedom and other fundamental human rights. Through the adoption of inter- and multidisciplinary approaches, and with reference to various religions such as Islam, Hinduism, Sufism, Sikhism, and Christianity, contributors address the themes across several regions in the world including Africa, South Asia, South-East Asia, South America, and Eastern Europe. Depending on the social, legal, and political context and by relying on diverse examples such as the Muslim call to prayer (adhan), domestic violence, animal sacrifice, religious conversions, abortion, the rights of LGBT persons, and religious education in the public sphere, the contributions illustrate how religious freedom can undermine or promote the rights of majority or minority religious communities, and how it can impact on the rights of marginalised members within minority religious communities.
Book Synopsis Separation of Church and State by : Philip HAMBURGER
Download or read book Separation of Church and State written by Philip HAMBURGER and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-30 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a powerful challenge to conventional wisdom, Philip Hamburger argues that the separation of church and state has no historical foundation in the First Amendment. The detailed evidence assembled here shows that eighteenth-century Americans almost never invoked this principle. Although Thomas Jefferson and others retrospectively claimed that the First Amendment separated church and state, separation became part of American constitutional law only much later. Hamburger shows that separation became a constitutional freedom largely through fear and prejudice. Jefferson supported separation out of hostility to the Federalist clergy of New England. Nativist Protestants (ranging from nineteenth-century Know Nothings to twentieth-century members of the K.K.K.) adopted the principle of separation to restrict the role of Catholics in public life. Gradually, these Protestants were joined by theologically liberal, anti-Christian secularists, who hoped that separation would limit Christianity and all other distinct religions. Eventually, a wide range of men and women called for separation. Almost all of these Americans feared ecclesiastical authority, particularly that of the Catholic Church, and, in response to their fears, they increasingly perceived religious liberty to require a separation of church from state. American religious liberty was thus redefined and even transformed. In the process, the First Amendment was often used as an instrument of intolerance and discrimination.

Book Synopsis Marcos Against the Church by : Robert Youngblood
Download or read book Marcos Against the Church written by Robert Youngblood and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The election of Ferdinand Marcos to the presidency of the Republic of the Philippines coincided with the conclusion of the work of Vatican II in 1965; and Marcos's dictatorial policies would inevitably clash with the Vatican's call for the clergy to advocate greater social justice for the poor. In this authoritative account of the role of the Catholic Church in the recent history of the Philippines, Robert L. Youngblood traces the political engagement of the Church over the twenty years between Marcos's election and his ouster from power in 1986. Drawing upon extensive research, Youngblood explains how, although church and state professed to share the goal of improving the welfare of the poor, Marcos's economic development policies and oppressive rule created church opposition which helped accelerate the collapse of his regime. Youngblood considers the evolution of church programs from social action projects, such as the organization of cooperatives and credit unions, to the development of social justice programs that emphasized the creation of more democratic and caring communities. He examines the dynamics by which the leaders of the Philippine Roman Catholic and Protestant churches moved from a brief period of goodwill toward the Marcos dictatorship to considerable opposition by the late 1970s, as church-sponsored work among the poor was increasingly viewed by the regime as subversive. Youngblood shows that after the assassination of Benigno Aquino, Jr., in 1983, the deterioration of the standard of living of average Filipinos, along with Marcos's repressive policies toward the churches and other abuses in the name of national security, were factors which impelled powerful church figures to actively oppose the dictatorship. Tracing the internal deliberations of the Philippine churches as they came to take the lead in opposing human rights abuses, Marcos against the Church deepens our understanding of problematic relations between church and state. Historians and social scientists interested in the Philippines and modern Southeast Asia, historians of religion, political scientists working in comparative politics and political development, and others concerned with issues of human rights will want to read it.
Book Synopsis Recognition by Philippine civil courts of Catholic Church declaration of nullity of marriage by : Jonieve P. Ramos
Download or read book Recognition by Philippine civil courts of Catholic Church declaration of nullity of marriage written by Jonieve P. Ramos and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marriage is the foundation of the family and an inviolable social institution. Under Article 7 of the Family Code, marriage may be solemnized by any "priest, rabbi, imam, or minister of any church or religious sect duly authorized by his church or religious sect ... Indubitably, marraige may be celebrated in accordance with one's religion and it is considered as valid under the Philippine civil courts. Accordingly, marriage solemnized under the rules of the Catholic Church has a two-fold aspect. It is secular inasmuch as marriage produces legal effects, such as property relations as well as family relations and filiation, in which the State has an interest. At the same time, it is religious inasmuch as it is one of the important sacraments in the Catholic Church. Marriage, however, may only be terminated in accordance with the laws of the State. The Family Code provides the grounds therefor: annulment and declaration of nullity. Clearly, in termination of marriages, only the secular aspect is taken into consideration without regard to the religious aspect thereof. This poses a problem in the Philippines, a deeply religious country, where most of the people celebrate their marriages through religious ceremonies. Those who believe in the spiritual sanctity of marriage, who for one reason or another necessitates the termination of marriage, would have to undergo through both civil and religious proceedings in order to effectively terminate marriage in its secular and religious aspect. Unfortunately, there are those who for reason of practicality, are unable to do so and would simply choose one over the other. The termination of marriage is governed by civil law and regulated by the State. Albeit there is a procedure for declaration of nullity by the Catholic Church under the Canon law, such is not recognized by Philippine civil courts.
Book Synopsis Law as Religion, Religion as Law by : David C. Flatto
Download or read book Law as Religion, Religion as Law written by David C. Flatto and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conventional approach to law and religion assumes that these are competing domains, which raises questions about the freedom of, and from, religion; alternate commitments of religion and human rights; and respective jurisdictions of civil and religious courts. This volume moves beyond this competitive paradigm to consider law and religion as overlapping and interrelated frameworks that structure the social order, arguing that law and religion share similar properties and have a symbiotic relationship. Moreover, many legal systems exhibit religious characteristics, informing their notions of authority, precedent, rituals and canonical texts, and most religions invoke legal concepts or terminology. The contributors address this blurring of law and religion in the contexts of political theology, secularism, church-state conflicts, and the foundational idea of divine law. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Book Synopsis Religion, Authority, and the State by : Leo D. Lefebure
Download or read book Religion, Authority, and the State written by Leo D. Lefebure and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-08-03 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In commemoration of Constantine’s grant of freedom of religion to Christians, this wide-ranging volume examines the ambiguous legacy of this emperor in relation to the present world, discussing the perennial challenges of relations between religions and governments. The authors examine the new global ecumenical movement inspired by Pentecostals, the role of religion in the Irish Easter rebellion against the British, and the relation between religious freedom and government in the United States. Other essays debate the relation of Islam to the violence in Nigeria, the place of the family in church-state relations in the Philippines, the role of confessional identity in the political struggles in the Balkans, and the construction of Slavophile identity in nineteenth-century Russian Orthodox political theology. The volume also investigates the contrast between written constitutions and actual practice in the relations between governments and religions in Australia, Indonesia, and Egypt. The case studies and surveys illuminate both specific contexts and also widespread currents in religion-state relations across the world.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of Medieval Canon Law by : Anders Winroth
Download or read book The Cambridge History of Medieval Canon Law written by Anders Winroth and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canon law touched nearly every aspect of medieval society, including many issues we now think of as purely secular. It regulated marriages, oaths, usury, sorcery, heresy, university life, penance, just war, court procedure, and Christian relations with religious minorities. Canon law also regulated the clergy and the Church, one of the most important institutions in the Middle Ages. This Cambridge History offers a comprehensive survey of canon law, both chronologically and thematically. Written by an international team of scholars, it explores, in non-technical language, how it operated in the daily life of people and in the great political events of the time. The volume demonstrates that medieval canon law holds a unique position in the legal history of Europe. Indeed, the influence of medieval canon law, which was at the forefront of introducing and defining concepts such as 'equity,' 'rationality,' 'office,' and 'positive law,' has been enormous, long-lasting, and remarkably diverse.
Book Synopsis Church, State, and Civil Society in Postauthoritarian Philippines by : Antonio F. Moreno
Download or read book Church, State, and Civil Society in Postauthoritarian Philippines written by Antonio F. Moreno and published by Ateneo University Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿The church has played a significant role in helping to bring down authoritarian regimes in Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Philippines. Once the dictator is gone, however, does the church have a role to play in the building or rebuilding of a democratic political system? Father Moreno opens up this question with an interesting discussion on the theoretical level. He then examines two cases, the Dioceses of Malaybalay and Bacolod in the Philippines, developing a useful framework for analysis and arriving at the notion of `engaged citizenship¿ as the primary contribution of the church to democratization in a postauthoritarian situation.¿ ¿John J. Carroll, S.J., Institute on Church and Social Issues
