Projecting a global interdisciplinary vision, this insightful book
develops a peer-to-peer learning methodology to facilitate
reconciling religion and human rights, both in multilateral
contexts and at the national level. Written by leading human rights
practitioners, the book illuminates the tension zones between
religion and rights, exploring how the 'faith' elements in both
disciplines can create synergies for protecting equal human
dignity. Ibrahim Salama and Michael Wiener analyse the place of
religion in multilateral practice, including lessons learned from
the 'Faith for Rights' framework. Based on the jurisprudence of
international human rights mechanisms, the book clarifies
ambiguities of human rights law on religion. It also unpacks the
potential positive role of non-State actors in the religious
sphere, demonstrating that the relationship between religion and
human rights is not a zero-sum game. Ultimately, the book empowers
actors on both sides of the ideological fence between religion and
human rights to deconstruct this artificial, politically
instrumentalized dichotomy. This innovative book will be a vital
resource for faith-based actors, human rights defenders and
policymakers working at the intersection between religion, culture
and human rights. With the co-authors' commentary on the
#Faith4Rights toolkit, it will also be invaluable for peer-to-peer
learning facilitators, scholars and students of human rights law,
public international law and religious studies.
Ergodic theory is a field that is lively on its own and also in its
interactions with other branches of mathematics and science. In
recent years the interchanges with harmonic analysis have been
especially noticeable and productive in both directions. The 1993
Alexandria Conference explored many of these connections as they
were developing. The three survey papers in this book describe the
relationships of almost everywhere convergence (J. Rosenblatt and
M. Wierdl), rigidity theory (R. Spatzier), and the theory of
joinings (J.-P. Thouvenot). These papers present the background of
each area of interaction, the most outstanding recent results, and
the currently promising lines of research. They should form perfect
starting points for anyone beginning research in one of these
areas. The book also includes thirteen research papers that
describe recent work related to the theme of the conference:
several treat questions arising from the Furstenberg multiple
recurrence theory, while the remainder discuss almost everywhere
convergence and a variety of other topics in dynamics.
Islamische Banken und Versicherungen sind weltweit auf dem
Vormarsch und verzeichnen zweistellige Wachstumsraten. Auch
hierzulande erfreut sich das sog. Islamic Finance & Banking
grosser Nachfrage. Im Fruhjahr 2015 wurde in Deutschland der ersten
islamischen Bank die Lizenz erteilt. Produkte und Dienstleistungen
dieser Banken basieren auf dem islamischen Wirtschaftsrecht (fiqh
al-mu'amalat al-maliyya), welches die Autoren in diesem Band naher
beleuchten. Neben der Frage nach der Umsetzbarkeit der Produkte und
Dienstleistungen, die massgeblich von der Konformitat mit der
hiesigen Rechtsordnung - insbesondere im Hinblick auf aufsichts-,
zivil- und steuerrechtlichen Anforderungen - abhangt, behandeln sie
grundsatzliche Fragen nach der Vereinbarkeit jener Institute mit
dem herrschenden Wirtschaftssystem.
