Few issues concerning religious freedom provoke so much controversy
and debate as the extent to which religious symbols should be
protected in the public sphere and the workplace. This book
provides the first sustained philosophical analysis of the concepts
at issue in this debate, as well as covering all the major recent
cases brought under Article 9 of the European Convention of Human
Rights, including the landmark judgment Eweida v UK. In particular,
it gives a clear presentation of the current state of the case-law,
grounding it, in a unique contribution to the debate, in an
investigation of its philosophical underpinnings. Particular
attention is paid to different functions of the symbol and their
theoretical background, with new emphasis on the role of the symbol
in bearing witness to faith. This book will open up new vistas for
philosophers of religion and legal theorists alike.
