Minority Religions and Religious Tolerance
This book is founded on a simple premise: that Jehovah’s Witnesses are a crucial litmus test for tolerance.When Witnesses do not enjoy basic freedoms to practice their faith, scholars should consider what their treatment reveals about the broader state of tolerance and respect for religious pluralism and religious minority groups.

Jehovah’s Witnesses as Extremists
This article examines the Russian Supreme Court’s 2017 decision to ban Jehovah’s Witnesses as “extremists.” The decision will bring Russia’s anti-extremism law before the Council of Europe via the European Court of Human Rights.

It also highlights th…

A Greater Danger than a Division of the German Army”
In June 1918, seven leaders of the International Bible Students Association ( IBSA ), a small but high profile Christian community, were convicted under the United States Espionage Act and sentenced to twenty years in prison.

Writing Witness History
From their humble origins as small, loose-knit groups of Bible students in Pennsylvania in the 1870s, Charles Taze Russell and his followers laid the foundations of a highly visible, and frequently controversial, worldwide religious organisation known since 1931 as the Jehovah's Witnesses. Despite the Witnesses' broad historical role in defining and shaping understandings of religious tolerance, freedom of conscience, and civil liberties around t…

Surveys show that Russians trust the Orthodox Church more than any other public institution, including law courts, trade unions, mass media, the mi…
