Law, Religion and Homosexuality is the first book-length study of
how religion has shaped, and continues to shape, legislation that
regulates the lives of gay men and lesbians . Through a systematic
examination of how religious discourse influences the making of law
- in the form of official interventions made by faith communities
and organizations, as well as by expressions of faith by individual
legislators - the authors argue that religion continues to be
central to both enabling and restricting the development of sexual
orientation equality. Whilst some claim that faith has been
marginalized in the legislative processes of contemporary western
societies, Johnson and Vanderbeck show the significant impact of
religion in a number of substantive legal areas relating to sexual
orientation including: same-sex sexual relations, family life,
civil partnership and same-sex marriage, equality in employment and
the provision of goods and services, hate speech regulation, and
education. Law, Religion and Homosexuality demonstrates the dynamic
interplay between law and religion in respect of homosexuality and
will be of considerable interest to a wide audience of academics,
policy makers and stakeholders.
