New volume on ‘Religion and Civil Society: The Changing Faces of Religion and Secularity’

February 19, 2014 Hans-Martien ten Napel

Religion and Civil Society Book

From the Foreword: ‘The relation between religion and secularity is a question of the most decisive importance in general and in the present situation. Confronting this question in an open, serious, and friendly spirit has been the principal goal of the research group on “Religion and Civil Society” in organizing the Boston Symposium at the Harvard Law School. For the hospitality we enjoyed there, we are deeply grateful to the Law School and, above all, to Prof. Mary Ann Glendon, who enriches the group with her wonderful personality.’

The book contains chapters on, inter alia, “Polity in Catholic Social Doctrine: Some Recent Perplexities”, “Religious Civilization and Civil Religion in a Multicultural World”, “Defending Civil Society: Religious Advocacy in America”, and “Freedom of Religion or Belief in the Foreign Policy of the European Union: Much Ado about Nothing”.

My own contribution, co-authored with Jaco van den Brink, is entitled “Towards an Institution-Sensitive Religious Freedom Conception”. An earlier version of this chapter was published in the Oxford Journal of Law and Religion.
