Download or read book Legal Flexibility and the Mission of the Church written by Will Adam and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legal scholars and authorities generally agree that the law should be obeyed and should apply equally to all those subject to it, without favour or discrimination. Yet it is possible to see that in any legal system there will be situations when strict application of the law will produce undesirable results, such as injustice or other consequences not intended by the law as framed. In such circumstances the law may be changed but there may be broad policy reasons not to do so. The allied concepts of dispensation and economy grew up in the western and eastern traditions of the Christian church as mechanisms whereby an individual or a class of people could, by authority, be excused from obligations under a particular law in particular circumstances without that law being changed. This book uncovers and explores this neglected area of church life and law. Will Adam argues that dispensing power and authority exist in various guises in the systems of different churches. Codified and understood in Roman Catholic and Orthodox canon law, this arouses suspicion in the Church of England and in English law in general. The book demonstrates that legal flexibility can be found in English law and is integral to the law of the Church, to enable the Church today better to fulfil its mission in the world.

Download or read book Religion Race Rights written by Eve Darian-Smith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-20 with total page 654 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book highlights the interconnections between three framing concepts in the development of modern western law: religion, race, and rights. The author challenges the assumption that law is an objective, rational and secular enterprise by showing that the rule of law is historically grounded and linked to the particularities of Christian morality, the forces of capitalism dependent upon exploitation of minorities, and specific conceptions of individualism that surfaced with the Reformation in the sixteenth century and rapidly developed in the Enlightenment in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Drawing upon landmark legal decisions and historical events, the book emphasises that justice is not blind because our concept of justice changes over time and is linked to economic power, social values, and moral sensibilities that are neither universal nor apolitical. Highlighting the historical interconnections between religion, race and rights aids our understanding of contemporary socio-legal issues. In the twenty-first century, the economic might of the USA and the west often leads to a myopic vision of law and a belief in its universal application. This ignores the cultural specificity of western legal concepts, and prevents us from appreciating that, analogous to previous colonial periods, in a global political economy Anglo-American law is not always transportable, transferable, or translatable across political landscapes and religious communities.
Download or read book Structures and Concepts of Ecclesiastical Authority C 1100 C 1500 written by Matthew Ross and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structures and concepts of ecclesiastical authority that existed in the Middle Ages fundamentally underpinned the medieval world, yet disciplinary boundaries have often inhibited scholarsâe(tm) approaches in this area of research. The purpose of this book is to reconsider the traditional approach to medieval Church authority, which is focused on the Church as an institution, by examining recent research in other related disciplines, such as the history of art, cultural history, liturgy, and musicology. Although work on medieval ecclesiastical authority has been undertaken separately in these different disciplines, they have not spoken to each other often enough: the studies here explicitly set out to break down these disciplinary barriers and to forge new ground in the study of a traditional subject by providing an outlet for the new research initiatives of both established and early career scholars. Power Manifest considers the topic of ecclesiastical authority in the Middle Ages, c.1100-c.1500, from a variety of disciplinary perspectives. The volume encompasses the nature of papal authority, episcopal power and the ranking of bishops at the royal court, the use of art to propound authority in absentia, the relations of the western Church with the eastern churches, the expression of ecclesiastical authority through music, the importance of collective clerical petitions, the cultural history of the papal chapel, as well as secular culture and the Church. Each contributor asks how ecclesiastical authority was conceptualised, analyses the structures through which it was expressed - in other words, how authority manifested itself as power - and most importantly, offers improved insight into the varying importance of structures and concepts under consideration. The essays all address new areas of research, and this, combined with the inter-disciplinary approaches arrayed in the volume, make it a volume which will have a significant impact on the historiography.
Download or read book The 1917 Or Pio Benedictine Code of Canon Law written by Catholic Church and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Available for the first time in a comprehensive English translation, this thoroughly annotated but easy-to-use presentation of the classic 1917 Code of Canon Law by canon and civil lawyer Dr. Edward Peters is destined to become the standard reference work on this milestone of Church law. More than just of historical interest, the 1917 Code is an indispensable tool for understanding the current 1983 Code under which the Roman Catholic Church governs itself. Dr. Peters' faithful translation of the original Latin text of 1917, along with his detailed references to such key canonical works as Canon Law Digest and hundreds of English language doctoral dissertations on canon law produced at the world's great Catholic universities, now allows researchers to access directly this great fountain of ecclesiastical legal science. No student of canon law, and indeed, no one with a need to understand modern Church administration, can afford to be without this important volume.
