This book was released on 2013-10-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’avvio della legislazione bilaterale con le confessioni di minoranza ed il raddoppio del numero delle intese, grazie a quelle stipulate nel 2007 che hanno portato al tavolo della contrattazione con lo Stato confessioni diverse da quelle storicamente presenti sul territorio italiano, arrivate in Italia in seguito all’incremento dell’immigrazione, hanno prodotto dei significativi cambiamenti ed introdotto nuove problematiche che interessano anche l’istituto del matrimonio. Ritorna così d’attualità lo studio del matrimonio religioso degli acattolici, la cui efficacia civile è stata riconosciuta in seguito all’emanazione della legge generale n. 1159/29 e del R.D. n. 289/30. La rilevanza di questa normativa si è ridimensionata a partire dal 1984, anno che ha inaugurato con la stipulazione della prima Intesa con la Tavola valdese la concreta attuazione del sistema delineato all’art. 8, c. 3, Cost., portando alla caducazione, per le undici confessioni che attualmente hanno raggiunto questo ambito traguardo, della legislazione del 1929, configgente ormai sotto molteplici aspetti con i valori garantiti dalla Carta costituzionale. Le disposizioni sul matrimonio contenute nelle intese sono state esaminate e confrontate con le corrispondenti norme della legge generale, dando anche risalto ai problemi sollevati dalla loro applicazione. Infine, si è cercato di verificare se con le innovazioni apportate dopo il 1984 dalla legislazione bilaterale ai procedimenti diretti a dare rilevanza civile al matrimonio religioso, che hanno sensibilmente diminuito le differenze tra matrimonio canonico ed acattolico, si possa constatare l’inizio di un processo volto ad una sostanziale omologazione delle differenti forme di matrimonio religioso. The start of the bilateral legislation with the minority confessions and the doubling of the number of agreements, thanks to those stipulated in 2007 that led to negotiation with the State new confessions different from those historically held on the Italian territory, due to the increase of immigration, produced relevant changes and introduced new problems that also affect the institution of marriage. Therefore the study of the religious marriage of non-catholics, whose civil effectiveness has been recognized from 1929 following the enactment of the General Law n. 1159/29 and R.D. n. 289/30, is getting more and more topical. The importance of this legislation, has declined since 1984 when signing the first agreement with the Waldensian Committee, started the practical implementation of the system of bilateral negotiation (art. 8. p. 3 Const.). The consequence was the end, for the eleven confessions that attained this historical goal, of the provisions of the General law mostly clashing with the values guaranteed by our Constitution. The provisions contained in the agreements on marriage were then examinated and compared with the corresponding provisions of the law of 1929, also giving emphasis to the problems raised by their application. It was finally attempted to verify if the changes due to the 1984 bilateral legislation (Agreement with the Catholic Church and with the minority confessions) to proceedings held to give civil importance to the religious marriage, might constitute the beginning of a process in which the different form of the religious marriage tend to homologate.

Download or read book Can Islam Be French written by John R. Bowen and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-06 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bowen asks not the usual question--how well are Muslims integrating in France?--but, rather, how do French Muslims think about Islam? In particular, Bowen examines how French Muslims are fashioning new Islamic institutions and developing new ways of reasoning and teaching. He looks at some of the quite distinct ways in which mosques have connected with broader social and political forces, how Islamic educational entrepreneurs have fashioned niches for new forms of schooling, and how major Islamic public actors have set out a specifically French approach to religious norms. --from publisher description.

Download or read book The Securitisation of Islam in Europe written by Jocelyne Cesari and published by CEPS. This book was released on 2009 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper summarises the main hypotheses and results of the research on the securitization of Islam. It posits that the securitisation of Islam is not only a speech act but also a policymaking process that affects the making of immigration laws, multicultural policies, antidiscrimination measures and security policies. The paper deconstructs and analyses the premises of such policies as well as their consequences on the civic and political participation of Muslims. The behaviour of Muslims was studied through 50 focus groups conducted in Paris, London, Berlin and Amsterdam over the year 2007-08. The results show a great discrepancy between the assumptions of policy-makers and the political and social reality of Muslims across Europe. The paper presents recommendations to facilitate the greater inclusion of Muslims within European public spheres.

Download or read book Birth Marriage and Death Ritual Religion and the Life Cycle in Tudor and Stuart England written by David Cressy and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 1997-05-29 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From childbirth and baptism through to courtship, weddings, and funerals, every stage in the life-cycle of Tudor and Stuart England was accompanied by ritual. Even under the protestantism of the reformed Church, the spiritual and social dramas of birth, marriage, and death were graced with elaborate ceremony. Powerful and controversial protocols were in operation, shaped and altered by the influences of the Reformation, the Revolution, and the Restoration. Each of the major rituals was potentially an arena for argument, ambiguity, and dissent. Ideally, as classic rites of passage, these ceremonies worked to bring people together. But they also set up traps into which people could stumble, and tests which not everybody could pass. In practice, ritual performance revealed frictions and fractures that everyday local discourse attempted to hide or to heal. Using fascinating first-hand evidence, David Cressy shows how the making and remaking of ritual formed part of a continuing debate, sometimes strained and occasionally acrimonious, which exposed the raw nerves of society in the midst of great historical events. In doing so, he vividly brings to life the common experiences of living and dying in Tudor and Stuart England.

Download or read book Religion in Public Spaces written by Dr Sabrina Pastorelli and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2012-10-28 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely volume discusses the much debated and controversial subject of the presence of religion in the public sphere. The book is divided in three sections. In the first the public/private distinction is studied mainly from a theoretical point of view, through the contributions of lawyers, philosophers and sociologists. In the following sections their proposals are tested through the analysis of two case studies, religious dress codes and places of worship. These sections include discussions on some of the most controversial recent cases from around Europe with contributions from some of the leading experts in the area of law and religion. Covering a range of very different European countries including Turkey, the UK, Italy and Bulgaria, the book uses comparative case studies to illustrate how practice varies significantly even within Europe. It reveals how familiarization with religious and philosophical diversity in Europe should lead to the modification of legal frameworks historically designed to accommodate majority religions. This in turn should give rise to recognition of new groups and communities and eventually, a more adequate response to the plurality of religions and beliefs in European society.

Download or read book Religion as Empowerment written by Kyriaki Topidi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-06-10 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume shows how and why legal empowerment is important for those exercising their religious rights under various jurisdictions, in conditions of legal pluralism. At the same time, it also questions the thesis that as societies become more modern, they also become less religious. The authors look beyond the rule of law orthodoxy in their consideration of the freedom of religion as a human right and place this discussion in a more plurality-sensitive context. The book sheds more light on the informal and/or customary mechanisms that explain the limited impact of law on individuals and groups, especially in non-Western societies. The focus is on discussing how religion and the exercise of religious rights may or may not empower individuals and social groups and improve access to human rights in general. This book is important reading for academics and practitioners of law and religion, religious rights, religious diversity and cultural difference, as well as NGOs, policy makers, lawyers and advocates at multicultural jurisdictions. It offers a contemporary take on comparative legal studies, with a distinct focus on religion as an identity marker.

Download or read book Religions as Brands written by Jean-Claude Usunier and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twentieth century, religion has gone on the market place. Churches and religious groups are forced to 'sell god' in order to be attractive to 'religious consumers'. More and more, religions are seen as 'brands' that have to be recognizable to their members and the general public. What does this do to religion? How do religious groups and believers react? What is the consequence for society as a whole? This book brings together some of the best international specialists from marketing, sociology and economics in order to answer these and similar questions. The interdisciplinary book treats new developments in three fields that have hitherto evolved rather independently: the commoditization of religion, the link between religion and consumer behavior, and the economics of religion. By combining and cross-fertilizing these three fields, the book shows just what happens when religions become brands.
