RELIGION AND GLOBAL AFFAIRS: REPRESSION AND RESPONSE
In: SAIS REVIEW, Band 18, Heft 2, S. 52-64
THE 1948 UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS REPRESENTED A FUNDAMENTAL CHALLENGE TO THE SUPPRESSION OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM BY SOVEREIGN STATES, BUT ITS APPLICATION WAS FRUSTRATED BY THE COLD WAR. TODAY, RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION REMAINS EXTREMELY WIDESPREAD AND SERIOUS, BUT A GROWING OPPOSITION TO IT IS STRENGTHENING THE HUMAN RIGHTS MOVEMENT. THIS TREND IS BEING OFFSET BY SEVERAL FACTORS, INCLUDING CORPORATE OPPOSITION TO STRONG HUMAN RIGHTS ACTION, WHICH IS IMPEDING THE MOVEMENT TO HOLD ABUSIVE GOVERNMENTS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ACTS.

Beyond tradition and modernity: changing religions in a changing world
In: Jordan lectures in comparative religion 11
In: Religious studies
In: Bloomsbury Academic collections
"First delivered in 1974 as one of the Jordan Lectures in Comparative Religion, this book considers and compares traditional or pre-modern and post-traditional or post-modern religions. It assesses the processes as well as the images of change in various cultures - principally Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism - and examines how these religions handle the dialects of rejection, appropriation and integration."--Bloomsbury Publishing
Civil Religion as Communication Environment: Conceptual Analysis
In: Politija: analiz, chronika, prognoz ; žurnal političeskoj filosofii i sociologii politiki = Politeía, Band 113, Heft 2, S. 76-96
ISSN: 2587-5914
The article presents a conceptual analysis of civil religion as a special form of combining the sacred and the political. Having stated the need for social researchers to address the religious side of society in general and its political implications in particular, the author tries not only to reconstruct the genealogy of the term "civil religion", but also to trace the differences between civil and political religion. Based on the analysis of the origins of the concept of civil religion, the author shows that its components — "civil" and "religious" — were introduced from two sources that are completely different in their spirit: the social philosophy of Jean-Jacques Rousseau and the sociological project of Emile Durkheim. Robert Bellah managed to combine the heuristics of both sources and offer a specific language for describing externally secular, but internally religious societies. Having thoroughly analyzed the three features of civil religion identified by Bellah, the author focuses on its functioning as a communication environment — a specific set of values that taboo or stimulate the articulation of certain political issues. The communication environment not only ensures the satisfaction of the needs of the state, within which a civil-religious cult is established, but also maintains a consensus on basic values, the undermining of which is fraught with the complete disintegration of society. According to the author's conclusion, in order to talk about the presence of a civil religion in a polity, this polity must meet several criteria, including unambiguous consensus about sacred values, political decision-making justified via theology and values, as well as the "topological" nature of the development of a political cult. This is the main reason why this form of political life is relatively rare.
The politics of religion in South and Southeast Asia
In: Routledge contemporary Asia series
The notion of a 'politics of religion' refers to the increasing role that religion plays in the politics of the contemporary world. This book presents comparative country case studies on the politics of religion in South and South Asia, including India, Pakistan and Indonesia. The politics of religion calls into question the relevance of modernist notions of secularism and democracy, with the emphasis instead on going back to indigenous roots in search of authentic ideologies and models of state and nation building. Within the context of the individual countries, chapters focus on the consequences that politics of religion has on inclusive nation-building, democracy and the rights of individuals, minorities and women. The book makes a contribution to both the theoretical and conceptual literature on the politics of religion as well as shed light on the implications and ramifications of the politics of religion on contemporary South Asian and South East Asian countries. It is of interest to students and scholars of South and South East Asian Studies, as well as Comparative Politics.

Die Herausgeber hinterfragen die Wende von der Kirchen- zur Religionssoziologie und die damit verbundene Hochschätzung angeblich in der Gesellschaft frei flottierender Religiosität bei gleichzeitiger Geringschätzung kirchlich-religiöser Kommunikation. Dagegen halten sie an der hohen Bedeutung der Kirche für religiöse Kommunikation überhaupt fest. In dem Band beantworten die Autoren von verschiedenen Positionen her theoretisch und empirisch die Frage nach der sozialen Reichweite von Religion und Kirche in der Gesellschaft
