The relationship between religion and human rights is complex.
Religion as a cultural phenomenon continues to manifest itself as a
force for social and political conflict, institutionalized violence
and repression. Yet religions also promote ideals of harmonious
living with traditions that enrich contemporary understandings of
international human rights with models of love, universal respect
and justice. Human Rights and Religion: A Reader brings together a
range of sources in a single volume to deal with these and related
questions. With theoretical perspectives and reflections on future
prospects, the volume includes critical case studies on human
rights and the world's religions in a political context and
addresses the following questions: What are the critical issues
when thinking about religion and human rights? Why do cultural and
religious differences present such challenges to international
consensus on human rights? Can universal human rights ever be
implemented in a world of particular cultural and religious
identities?
