This informative, easy-to-use reference work covers a wide range of
legal issues that affect the roles of religion and law in American
society. Extensive AaEURO"Z entries provide coverage of key court
decisions, case studies, concepts, individuals, religious groups,
organizations, and agencies shaping religion and law in today's
society. This Encyclopaedia focuses on topics involved with the
constitutional theory and interpretation of religion and the law;
terms providing a historical explanation of the ways in which
America's ever increasing ethnic and religious diversity
contributed to our current understanding of the mandates of the
First and Fourteenth Amendments; terms and concepts describing the
development of religion clause jurisprudence; an analytical
examination of the distinct vocabulary used in this area of the
law; the means by which American courts have attempted to balance
religious liberty against other important individual and social
interests in a wide variety of physical and regulatory
environments, including the classroom, the workplace, the
courtroom, religious group organization and structure, taxation,
the clash of 'secular' and 'religious' values, and the relationship
of the generalized idea of individual autonomy of the specific
concept of religious liberty. Important legislation and legal cases
affecting religion and society are thoroughly covered in this
timely volume, including a detailed Table of Cases and Table of
Statutes for more detailed research. A guide to further reading and
an index are also included. This useful resource will be an
important acquisition for the reference collections of all public
libraries, university libraries, religion reference collections and
high schools.
