Migrationsbewegungen haben die 'Religionslandschaften' vieler europäischer Staaten nachhaltig verändert. Das Studienbuch vermittelt systematische und anwendungsorientierte Kenntnisse zum Wechselverhältnis von Religion und Migration aus religionswissenschaftlicher Perspektive. Zur Sprache kommen Analysen zu religiösem Wandel in der Diaspora und Integration im Zeichen religiöser Pluralisierung. Thematische Vertiefungen decken Moscheebaukonflikte, interreligiöse Dialoge, Digitalisierung und Fragen der Religionskompetenz ab. Das Buch richtet sich an Studierende der Religionswissenschaft und angrenzender Fächer (z.B. Ethnologie, Soziologie, Kulturanthropologie) sowie an interessierte Praktiker:innen, etwa im Bereich der Sozialen Arbeit.

"The problem of absolutes" refers to the difficulty of grounding and defending absolute prohibitions in a legal system that is rationalized on the basis of means-ends rationality. (An example might be the difficulty in identifying an absolute prohibition on torture that is not susceptible to being reinterpreted, read down, or negotiated away.) In the present paper, I associate this difficulty in the first instance with Max Weber's account of the rationalization of law and the distancing of law from any sense of sacred or transcendent obligation. But other developments need to be considered as well. I argue that the problem is as much about morality as it is about law. The two-law and morality-develop together in a complementary way, and the problem of legal absolutes tends to be matched by a corresponding difficulty with moral absolutes, just as the desanctification of law tends to be matched by a desanctification of morality"--

Cécile Laborde's Liberalism's Religion proposes liberal principles to address political controversies over religion. One is the public reason requirement that reasons for state policies should be accessible. Another is the civic inclusiveness requirement according to which symbolic religious establishment is wrong when it communicates that religious identity is a component of civic identity. A third is the claim that liberal states have meta-jurisdictional authority to settle the boundary between what counts as religion and what counts as non-religion. The article considers whether Laborde has managed to articulate these three principles in a way that is operationalisable and can serve to provide solutions to practical controversies over religion. It is argued that Laborde's formulations leave important issues open, and some ways of settling these issues are considered. ; Cécile Laborde's Liberalism's Religion proposes liberal principles to address political controversies over religion.

The article argues that what is performed and understood as religion in global society has in the course of the modern centuries come to be increasingly dominated by the idea that religion is something distinct and differentiated, something distinct from what is not religion, namely the secular. It manifests itself principally as a plurality of identified and performed religions. Towards the latter half of the 20th century, however, that dominant understanding of religion has come to be increasingly challenged by alternative ways of 'sensing religion', alternative ways that are to some extent a reflection of new developments in this domain of religion in global society. They are also indicative of a reassessment of alternative ways of understanding and doing religion that have always accompanied the dominant sense. This reassessment allows the 'hidden' and 'ignored' to appear as religion and be recognized as such without negating the hitherto dominant form. The first of these developments is analyzed as the construction of a Westphalian system for religion; the reassessment and transformation is discussed under the contrasting idea of a post-Westphalian circumstance.
