Translation and the Search for Justice in Contexts of Religious and Cultural Diversity
Dynamics of Identification and Conflict
Dealing with the dynamics of identification and conflict, this book uses theoretical orientations ranging from political ecology to rational choice theory, interpretive approaches, Marxism and multiscalar analysis. Case studies set in Africa, Europe and Central Asia are grouped in three sections devoted to pastoralism, identity and migration. What connects all of these anthropological explorations is a close focus on processes of identification a…
Law and Migration in a Changing World
The Oxford Handbook of Law and Anthropology
This book is a groundbreaking collection of essays that provides an original and internationally framed conception of the historical, theoretical, and ethnographic interconnections of law and anthropology. Each of the chapters in the Handbook provides a survey of the current state of scholarly debate and an argument about the future direction of research in this dynamic and interdisciplinary field. The structure of the Handbook is animated by an …
Redesigning Justice for Plural Societies
Islam under the Rule of Law in Europe
This contribution draws attention to human rights as an instrument of justice to deal with requests that are either made directly or may prove indirectly to be relevant to Muslims who claim the protection of freedom of religion and faith in contemporary European societies. The analysis is distributed over two distinct but complementary illustrations of such claims. The position defended here is that the key to a successful multicultural society l…
Humanitarian Admission to Europe
Bringing together contributions from legal scholars and practitioners, this book contributes to a broader reflection on the extent to which policy controversies on humanitarian admission to Europe are channeled and managed through law. The book is divided into four parts. The first part identifies the international and European legal obligations that are binding on both the EU and the Member States, and the constraints they impose – potentially a…
Public Commissions on Cultural and Religious Diversity
In several Western countries, expert commissions composed of academics, public figures, politicians and community organisers have been established by governments or civil society to reflect on the changes and challenges of an increasingly plural society. Commission recommendations on how to 'manage' diversities successfully have shaped national narratives and affected law and public policies, yet research on the workings of such commissions remai…
European Supranational Courts and the Fundamental Right to Freedom of Religion or Belief
Since the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty on 1 December 2009, human rights in Europe is a matter for two supranational courts. As a new actor in the area of human rights protection in Europe, the European Union entered a multilevel European human rights architecture, which was characterized by an inherent interplay between the state level and the supranational level of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR). The jurisprudence of the ECt…
Freedom of religion and belief in the European workplace
In this concluding contribution to the special issue on practices of reasonable accommodation for religion or belief in the workplace, the striking differences and similarities between the six country studies dealing with England, the Netherlands, Denmark, Bulgaria, France and Turkey are discussed. An important observation that emerges from all six analyses, and gives reason for considerable optimism as regards the development of protection of re…
Framing Multicultural Challenges in Freedom of Religion Terms
Multicultural challenges in Europe are being framed in human rights language, and in particular in terms of the freedom of thought, conscience and religion. The question is whether the practical case-by-case application of the fundamental right to freedom of religion in national and European case law facilitates a ‘deep (and normative) diversity’ in Europe or rather only allows space for a limiting or ‘conditioned diversity’ instead. While openin…
