The field of law and religion studies has undergone a profound
transformation over the last thirty years. At the beginning of this
period it was predominantly understood as an area devoted to the
study of the relationship between States and religious communities.
The focus of the discipline then moved first to looking at the
rights of religious liberty and then to encompass the place and
role of religion in the public space. This handbook features new,
specially commissioned papers by a range of eminent scholars and
offers a comprehensive overview of the field of law and religion
including its historical development. The book takes an
interdisciplinary approach including contributions from
anthropologists, sociologists, theologians and political scientists
in order to analyze how laws and court decisions concerning
religion contribute to the shaping of the public space. The
chapters address themes including: religious symbols in the public
space; apostasy; law, religion and security; and freedom of
religion and cultural rights.With its authoritative and
path-breaking chapters this book is an essential reference work for
both students and scholars interested in the interactions and
relationship between law and religion.
