Human Rights and Religions

Non-State Actors and Their Correlation with Human Rights

Beschreibung

Offering a critical, comprehensive, and holistic discussion of the validity of human rights inside and outside of religious communities, this book explores the relationship between religious communities, abstract religion , and human rights from an ethical perspective. The work also provides a rounded discussion on human rights-obligations and-responsibilities of religions communities and worldview-based communities as well as of non-state actors. Prompting religions and worldview-based communities to redefine their relationship to the liberal state, this book allows for ethical conclusions to be drawn about other non-state actors, their relationship to human rights, and their means to peacefully coexistence in secular society. The book is therefore an attractive read for scholars interested in the social and religion dimensions of Human Rights and Religions.
