Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A la une des journaux: la multiplication des mouvements religieux. Les médias donnent l'impression d'une offensive des sectes. Nous choisissons de voir clair. Nous ne pouvons nous contenter d'impressions superficielles, de jugements hâtifs. Le phénomène de ces mouvements religieux est une réalité suffisamment importante et le nombre des personnes rejointes par ces mouvements, une quantité non négligeable. Ce phénomène exige qu'on s'y arrête et qu'on l'étudie.

Download or read book Mgr Ndongmo et la Question Bamil k au Cameroun written by Andre Segue and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2022-06-06 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contrairement aux adeptes de !'instruction publique que sont les Français, les Anglo-saxons ont une conception de l'enseignement qui inclut à la fois !'instruction et l'éducation, l'objectif étant toujours de former un individu accompli dans la tradition des acquis du Liberal Arts Education . Raison pour laquelle, la religion est demeurée longtemps une discipline à part entière dans le curriculum de l'enseignement dans la partie anglophone du Cameroun. Il faut cependant garder à l'esprit qu'au-delà de ce qui peut apparaitre comme approches discordantes des missionnaires chrétiens en situation coloniale, catholiques, protestants et autres presbytériens semblent avoir été toujours d'accord sur la nature sacrée de leur mission de conversion et de diffusion de la civilisation occidentale en pays de mission. Dommage que les dirigeants camerounais n'aient jamais réussi à s'inspirer de la démarche ci-dessus et à adopter une ligne de conduite un tant soit peu patriotique. Les politiciens postcoloniaux ont constamment fait montre d'un déconcertant opportunisme. Il peut certes leur arriver de solliciter publiquement ou officieusement l'Eglise à travers ses princes locaux pour accompagner les pouvoirs publics dans la résolution des conflits sociopolitiques. Mais par moments, ils n'hésiteront pas à leur rappeler que l'Eglise ne doit pas se mêler de politique. Elle doit se cantonner dans les affaires spirituelles, oubliant l'un des enseignements les plus mémorables de Mgr Ndongmo, à savoir qu' on ne peut pas conduire les hommes au ciel comme si la terre n'existait pas.

Download or read book La nouvelle question religieuse written by Pauline Côté and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans un contexte de polarisation croissante des opinions publiques au plan international, comment la question religieuse est-elle soulevée en France, aux États-unis, en Belgique, au Canada ? Commissions parlementaires, rapports gouvernementaux et lois font écho à une diversification religieuse souvent perçue comme menaçante et aux problèmes inédits que poseraient l'islam et les sectes. Quelles politiques religieuses en résulte-t-il ? En mobilisant quel type de savoir ? Tel est l'objet de ce livre, lequel permet une première analyse croisée des identités, des valeurs, des images et des mythes véhiculés par les décideurs publics et par divers groupes de la société civile engagés à nouveaux frais - sur fond de globalisation, de symboles nationaux et de droits universels - au tracé des frontières entre le public et le religieux. In a context of increasing polarization of public opinion about religious questions, how do issues involving religion appear in France, the United States, Belgium, and Canada? Parliamentary commissions, governmental reports, and laws pertaining to Islam and to so-called sects often lead to the promulgation of regulations that reflect the public's anxiety that religious diversity per se is threatening. The purpose of this book is to examine some of the identities, values, images, and myths that are perceived by decision makers and by participants in civil societies when boundaries are drawn between the public and the religious at the place where globalization and universal human rights meet.
Download or read book Politics of Religion in Western Europe written by François Foret and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion is becoming increasingly important to the study of political science and to re-examine key concepts, such as democracy, securitization, foreign policy analysis, and international relations. The secularization of Europe is often understood according to the concept of ‘multiple modernities’—the idea that there may be several roads to modernity, which do not all mean the eradication of religion. This framework provides support for the view that different traditions, societies and groups can come to terms with the components of modernity (capitalism, democracy, human rights, science and reason) while keeping in touch with their religious background, faith and practice. Contributors examine the interaction between EU-integration processes and Western European countries, such as Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Austria, Scandinavia, Italy, and the UK, and shine fresh light on the economic and cultural contexts brought about by relationships between politics and religion, including immigrant religions and new religious movements. This volume combines theoretical perspectives from political sociology and international relations to consider the role of religion as a source of power, identity and ethics in institutions and societies. Politics of Religion in Western Europe will be of interest to scholars of politics, religion, the European Union and political sociology.
Download or read book Sociologie Et Religions written by Liliane Voyé and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the relations between sociology and the different religions--Christianity with its various branches, Judaism, Islam, Oriental religions, sects and New Religious Movements? That is the question which this work, conceived on the occasion of the XXVth Conference of the International Society for the Sociology of Religion/Société Internationale de Sociologie des Religions (SISR), wishes to clarify.The book retraces the varied and troubled history of these relations and also reveals how in opening up its research to other religions besides the Christian, sociology is forced to redefine the very object of its field of study. What is the religious? This question, which until recently was considered impertinent, informs this book throughout.If confronts the necessity of rethinking theories and methodological approaches which, constructed in the context of 19th and early 20th century Western Europe, prove to be rather inadequate for encompassing contemporary religious phenomena and religious manifestations in other contexts. To these new theoretical and methodological demands is added, for the sociologist, a deontological imperative, which takes on all the more importance today as the religious provokes passionate social debate.

Download or read book State Responses to Minority Religions written by David M. Kirkham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The response of states to demands for free exercise of religion or belief varies greatly across the world. In some places, religions come as close as imaginable to autonomous existences with little interference from government. In other cases religion finds itself grinding out a meagre living, if at all, under the jealously watchful eye of the state. This book provides a legal and normative overview of the variety of responses to minority religions available to states. Exploring case studies ranging from Islamic regions such as Indonesia, Pakistan, and the wider Middle East, to Western Europe, Eastern Europe, China, Russia, Canada, and the Baltics, contributors include international scholars and experts in law, sociology, religious studies, and political science. This book offers invaluable perspectives on how minority religions are currently being received, reviewed, challenged, or ignored in different parts of the world.
Download or read book Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights written by Jean-François Renucci and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights guarantees freedom of thought, conscience and religion. The protection it affords is of such significance that the judges of the European Court of Human Rights regard it as one of the cornerstones of d'mocratic society. The freedoms Article 9 guarantees have two essential aspects: internal, covering the freedom to hold convictions and beliefs, and external, covering the freedom to manifest one's convictions and beliefs. The first of these freedoms is absolute, the second relative, but in neither case can their importance be undervalued.
Download or read book L Europe des religions written by Richard Friedli and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le facteur religieux intervient dans le processus européen d'intégration. Aujourd'hui, le débat sur le préambule de la constitution européenne met en scène l'importance des héritages religieux dans l'identité civilisationnelle de l'Europe. Mais la façon d'exprimer cette identité suscite bien des débats au sein des mondes religieux et laïques. La question centrale est celle de l'acceptation de la société pluraliste et de la laïcité des institutions publiques. Il s'agit d'un défi autant pour les pays de tradition orthodoxe, aujourd'hui confrontés au pluralisme religieux qu'a entraîné l'ouverture démocratique, que pour les pays de tradition judéo-chrétienne qui doivent compter avec la présence établie de communautés musulmanes d'horizons et de générations diverses. Le succès des religions et des spiritualités orientales, tel que le bouddhisme, engendre lui aussi des attitudes diversifiées du croire en modernité. Continent marqué par des déchirures géographiques, idéologiques et religieuses, l'Europe est aujourd'hui le terrain de recomposition économiques, politiques et juridiques. Produit d'une science des religions ouverte et prospective, le présent ouvrage veut collaborer, à l'aide d'approches et de méthodes diverses, à la recherche de valeurs fédératives pour l'Europe de demain. La majorité des contributions réunies ont été présentées lors du troisième cycle en science des religions organisé en 2003 par la Conférence Universitaire de Suisse occidentale (CUSO).

Download or read book Law Religion Constitution written by W. Cole Durham and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the place assigned to religion in the constitutions of contemporary States? What role is religion expected to perform in the fields that are the object of constitutional regulation? Is separation of religion and politics a necessary precondition for democracy and the rule of law? These questions are addressed in this book through an analysis of the constitutional texts that are in force in different parts of the world. Constitutions are at the centre of almost all contemporary legal systems and provide the principles and values that inspire the action of the national law-makers. After a discussion of some topics that are central to the constitutional regulation of religion, the book considers a number of national systems covering countries with a variety of religious and cultural backgrounds. The final section of the book is devoted to the discussion of the constitutional regulation of some particularly controversial issues, such as religious education, the relation between freedom of speech and freedom of religion, abortion, and freedom of conscience.
