The first freedom Background and genesis of the international religious freedom act The international religious freedom act European Union law and religious freedom Protection and promotion of religious freedom in the external relations of the European Union Reception of the United States model in the experiences of several European countries A return to the collective aspect of religious freedom? different religious perspectives on the construction of law The impossibility of religious freedom?
Summary: "This book analyzes the promotion and protection of freedom of religion in the international arena with a particular focus on the role and influence of the US International Religious Freedom Act, 1998. It also investigates the impact of the IRFA on the legislation and policies of third countries and the EU. The book develops the story of the protection of religious freedom through foreign policy by showing how religious laws affect and shape a more communitarian dimension of the notion of freedom of religion which stands in contrast with a traditionally Western individualistic understanding of the right. It is argued that it is still possible to defend the unstable category of freedom of religion or belief especially when major violations are at stake."-- Back cover
