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.
