Während die Körperthematik schon in der Theologie und der Sportwissenschaft aufgegriffen wurde, sucht man entsprechende Diskurse und Studien in der Religionswissenschaft bislang vergebens. Die Autorinnen und Autoren greifen die Ansätze der kulturwissenschaftlichen Nachbardisziplinen auf, stellen sie zur Diskussion und geben damit einen Impuls für die weitere religionswissenschaftliche Forschung. Im gleichen Masse, wie Religionen sich mit der Seele und Metaphysik des Menschen beschäftigen, prägen sie normativ unsere Körpervorstellungen und -praktiken. Die verschiedenen Beiträge befassen sich deshalb mit der Dynamik zwischen dem real-physischen Körper des Menschen, den Körperpraktiken und normativen Körpervorstellungen.

Das Verhältnis von Religion und Medien ist eines der zentralen Probleme der Religionsgeschichte. Wie schon in früheren Zeiten, aber vermehrt im beginnenden 21. Jahrhundert wird der gesellschaftliche Diskurs über Religion insgesamt durch Massenmedien geprägt und gestaltet. Der Band versammelt Sondierungen von Religionswissenschaftlerinnen und Religionswissenschaftlern in diesem innovativen Forschungsfeld anlässlich einer Tagung der Schweizerischen Gesellschaft für Religionswissenschaft im Jahr 2009. Die untersuchten Medien reichen vom Geld über Printmedien und Kleidung bis hin zu Comics und Internet. Eingeleitet werden die Studien durch theoretische Überlegungen zur Beziehung zwischen Religion, Gesellschaft und medialen Kommunikationsstrukturen.

National hearing This article addresses the intertwining of religious and environmental issues in judicial proceedings in India. It examines cases which show the complexity of certain problems which judges have to resolve. The preferred approach here is anthropological rather than legal and the emphasis is placed on the plurality of dimensions of phenomena envisaged in the context of the transformations in Indian society. In addition to a presentation of the role of the High Courts of Justice in India, the authors examine how development projects that could harm the environment are challenged before the courts using religious arguments as well. ; This article addresses the way issues of religion and the environment are embedded in judicial procedure in India. It examines specific cases which reveal the complexity of certain problems that the judges have to settle. Emphasis is placed her on the anthropological rather than the judicial approach, stressing the multifold dimensions of the phenomena envisaged in the context of the transformations affecting Indian society. After a presentation of the role played by the upper courts of justice in India, the authors examine how development projects likely to be detrimental to the environment come to be challenged before the courts by also referring to religious issues. ; National hearing This article addresses the intertwining of religious and environmental issues in judicial proceedings in India.

Abstract: This paper examines the mediating role that education plays between religion and democratic community. The paper is situated in the Canadian context and examines this mediation through two questions: First, what is the relationship between religion and education and what is the contribution of this relationship to and within a pluralist society? And, second, do schools have a responsibility in developing a unified model of who the citizen is as a person? Both questions are founded upon the premise that citizens are more than citizens, they are also persons.

Does a democratic pluralism exist, implying a democracy different from the "Western" standards? Based on a positive assumption, this is the question that we attempt to answer to in this research within a specific framework, namely the commonly contested alliance between democracy and religion. We have decided to study Middle-Eastern democracies with their specificities related to the narrow link that exists in those countries between politics and religion. The countries of the area that seemed, as of today, the most democratic to us are Lebanon, Israel (including a study of the Palestinian Territories) and Turkey. Based on the democratic principles of Equality and Liberty, also present in their respective constitutions, we have decided to look into the specificities of each country; such as being a confessional state for Lebanon, a Jewish state for Israel, a state without a state for the Palestinian Territories and a state being at the same time secular, Turkish and Islamic for Turkey. In each of these countries there are democratic flaws that we have highlighted, as well as positive evolutions. The Nationalism present in each of these countries is particularly pronounced according to the different communities to which one belongs, which leads the main ethnic to become a national identification, hence our ambitious choice to name these states ethnic democracies based on the ethnos (people's identification to a community). It is also because of this specificity that they encounter weaknesses towards the recognition of other identifications such as their respective minorities. ; Existe-t-il un pluralisme démocratique, une démocratie différente de celle des normes « occidentales » ? C'est la question que nous nous sommes posés dans notre recherche, en partant sur une hypothèse affirmative, dans un contexte spécifique qui est celui de l'alliance communément contestée entre démocratie et religion. Nous avons décidé de nous pencher sur les démocraties du Proche-Orient, sur leurs particularismes liés au rapport étroit ...
