Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the great tasks, perhaps the greatest, weighing on modern international lawyers is to craft a universal law and legal process capable of ordering relations among diverse people with differing religions, histories, cultures, laws, and languages. In so doing, we need to take the world's peoples as we find them and not pretend out of existence their wide variety. This volume, now available in paperback, builds on the eleven essays edited by Mark Janis in 1991 in The Influence of Religion and the Development of International Law, more than doubling its authors and essays and covering more religious traditions. Now included are studies of the interface between international law and ancient religions, Confucianism, Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, as well as essays addressing the impact of religious thought on the literature and sources of international law, international courts, and human rights law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This books maps out the territory of international law and religion challenging receiving traditions in fundamental aspects. On the one hand, the connection of international law and religion has been little explored. On the other, most of current research on international legal thought presents international law as the very victory of secularization. By questioning that narrative of secularization this book approaches these traditions from a new perspective. From the Middle Ages' early conceptualizations of rights and law to contemporary political theory, the chapters bring to life debates concerning the interaction of the meaning of the legal and the sacred. The contributors approach their chapters from an array of different backgrounds and perspectives but with the common objective of investigating the mutually shaping relationship of religion and law. The collaborative endeavour that this volume offers makes available substantial knowledge on the question of international law and religion --Front flap.

Book excerpt: This is exclusive publication for everyone, include theology and law students up to university level. It can be used as reference. Demonstrates how religious faith ways of life influence creation of civil and criminal national and international laws.If one want to read about specific religion laws, I recommend my books on each of the major religion which are in about five languages. Visit my website www.faithunitybooks.com or jsaccountsbusinessandlaw for over 30 of my books on religion, academic(laws, accounts, business etc)Synopsis of this publication (Religion and Law)This unique publication is over 460 pages, divided into about 78 chapters, aims to enlighten my readers as to why religion or spiritual faiths doctrines are labelled "ways of life" and how these principles of the five major religions or faiths namely; Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Sikh can influence enactment of national and international laws. I have written on at least two countries in each of the continents, and describe how each of the five religions aforementioned teaching influence the national laws. Moreover it is hoped to benefit multi faith community to understand and love each other, unite and live in peace and abide by the national, international laws. All these religions, or way of life have about ninety-five percent Similarities in their doctrines and the five percent difference are very minor, which explains why there is less religious opposition in creation of international laws. The similarities in doctrines help nations to agree the structure of the national laws. However, difference principles in faiths contribute to conflicts which lead to the difficulties in enforcing international laws. All religious faiths doctrines support Human Rights which play a major role in everybody's life; The comprehensive content and referencing, is an evidence of how I have carried out detail researched for each of the topics/chapters covered, in order to provide my readers concise but valuable knowledge, especially for theology and law students up to university level, leaders of the five major religion/faith, other professionals who use religion and law in their practice, or any interested person who wishes to know more. I have critically analyses some sensitive topics such as: Harshness in some religious ways of life, some types of International Crimes, International Gang Crimes, How some nations use military force and claim self-defence, Legal Implications under the United Nations Charter include ICJ ( international court of justice), and ICC international criminal court. Violating of human Right laws, How head of state and some diplomats claim immunity for their crime, the difficulties in enforcing international laws, destruction of the world, and more. From religious perspective, I have reflected on possible destruction of the world after judgement day, looking at the history of God's powers, warning signs before and after Jesus Christ. include, wars, natural calamities, pandemics etc. There are over thirty books which I have written and published include; laws, criminology, accounting, psychology, counselling, poems, 4 business books, over 20 religious books cover most faiths in about five different languages etc. Please visit my websites www.faithunitybooks.com or jsaccountsbusinessandlaw.com and follow the link to the sellers; include Amazon.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores different theories of law, religion, and tradition, from both a secular and a religious perspective. It reflects on how tradition and change can affect religious and secular legal reasoning, identifying the patterns of legal evolution within religious and secular traditions. It is often taken for granted that, even in law, change corresponds and correlates to progress – that things ought to be changed and they will necessarily get better. There is no doubt that legal changes over the centuries have made it possible to enhance the protection of individual rights and to somewhat contain the possibility of tyranny and despotism. But progress is not everything in law: stability and certainty lie at the core of the rule of law. Similarly, religions and religious laws could not survive without traditions; and yet, they still evolve, and their evolution is often intermingled with secular law. The book asks (and in some ways answers) the questions: What is the role of tradition within religions and religious laws? What is the impact of religious traditions on secular laws, and vice-versa? How are the elements of tradition to be identified? Are they the same within the secular and the religious realm? Do secular law and religious law follow comparable patterns of change? Do their levels of resilience differ significantly? How does the history of religion and law affect changes within religious traditions and legal systems? The overall focus of the book addresses the extent to which tradition plays a role in shaping and re-shaping secular and religious laws, as well as their mutual boundaries.

This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questions of secularity and modernity have become globalized, but most studies still focus on the West. This volume breaks new ground by comparatively exploring developments in five areas of the world, some of which were hitherto situated at the margins of international scholarly discussions: Africa, the Arab World, East Asia, South Asia, and Central and Eastern Europe. In theoretical terms, the book examines three key dimensions of modern secularity: historical pathways, cultural meanings, and global entanglements of secular formations. The contributions show how differences in these dimensions are linked to specific histories of religious and ethnic diversity, processes of state-formation and nation-building. They also reveal how secularities are critically shaped through civilizational encounters, processes of globalization, colonial conquest, and missionary movements, and how entanglements between different territorially grounded notions of secularity or between local cultures and transnational secular arenas unfold over time.

This book was released on 2024-01-15 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In offering a critical analysis of the writings of Cornelius van Bynkershoek (1673-1743) - the eminent Dutch jurist known traditionally as a `positivist', in the history of international law - this work goes beyond an analysis of the `classics' per se to clarify some basic questions concerning the history of international law, such as the relationship between legal doctrine and state practice and the reconsideration of methodological differences among historical figures like Grotius, Pufendorf, and Vattel. It also covers some fundamental problems of international law generally, such as the meaning of positivism and positive law and the function of reason. The work comprises three main parts: - the construction of Van Bynkershoek's general theory of the law of nations, - an overview and analysis of the contemporary practice relevant to his theories on the laws of neutral commerce, and - the 'genealogy' of Van Bynkershoek's works, namely his relation to Grotius and to his later generations of publicists. Scholars and others interested in the past and future direction of international law as a whole will not want to miss this highly original offering.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Fragmentation' has become a defining, albeit controversial, metaphor of international law scholarship in the era of globalisation. Some scholars see it as a new development, others as history repeating itself; some approach it as a technical issue and some as the reflection of deeper political struggles. But there is near-consensus about the fact that the established vision of international law as a unitary whole is under threat. At the core of the fragmentation debate lies the concept of unity, but this is hardly ever rationalised and is more assumed than explained. Its meaning remains vague and intuitive. 'The Concept of Unity in Public International Law' attempts to dispel that vagueness by exploring the various possible meanings of the concept of unity in international law. However, eschewing one grand theory of unity, it identifies and compares five candidates. Intentionally pluralistic in its outlook, the book does not engage in normative arguments about whether international law is or should be unitary but seeks to show instead that the concept of unity is contested and that discourses on fragmentation are necessarily contingent. The thesis on which the book is based won the 2009 Prize for best doctoral thesis from the Association des professeurs de droit du Québec.
