Violations of religious freedom and violence committed in the name
of religion grab our attention on a daily basis. Freedom of
religion or belief is a key human right: the International Covenant
on Civil and Political Rights, numerous conventions, declarations
and soft law standards include specific provisions on freedom of
religion or belief. The 1981 Declaration on the Elimination of All
Forms of Intolerance and of Discrimination Based on Religion or
Belief has been interpreted since 1986 by the mandate of the UN
Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief. Special
Rapporteurs (for example those on racism, freedom of expression,
minority issues and cultural rights) and Treaty Bodies (for example
the Human Rights Committee, the Committee on the Elimination of
Racial Discrimination and the Committee on the Rights of the Child)
have also elaborated on freedom of religion or belief in the
context of their respective mandates. Freedom of Religion or
Belief: An International Law Commentary is the first commentary to
look comprehensively at the international provisions for the
protection of freedom of religion or belief, considering how they
are interpreted by various United Nations Special Procedures and
Treaty Bodies. Structured around the thematic categories of the
United Nations Special Rapporteur's framework for communications,
the commentary analyses, for example, the limitations on the
wearing of religious symbols and vulnerable situations, including
those of women, detainees, refugees, children, minorities and
migrants, through a combination of scholarly expertise and
practical experience.
