\nHans G. Kippenberg, former fellow of the Max Weber Centre has written a \nbook on legal regulations of freedom of religion from 1948 onwards, from\n the \u201eUniversal Declaration of Human Rights\u201c of 1948 to the \n\u201eInternational Covenant on Civil and Political\n Rights\u201c of 1966\/76. Written with an international perspective, the \nfocus of the book shifts to European developments, the European \nConvention on Human Rights and the European Commission on Human Rights \nand the European Court in the second half of the book.\n Individual cases and legal developments from Italy to the United \nKingdom, from Switzerland to Greece and Turkey are analyzed. The \nhistoricization of the process is interesting for the history of \nreligion in general as for the problems of religious beliefs,\n actions, and institutionalizations in urban contexts and urban \nreligion. The book demonstrates the manifold strands and quick changes \nin the perspectives on and the contents of legal matters, but it also \ndemonstrates how the trace of such texts and court cases\n produces lasting changes. The historicization of this process from the \npoint of view of History of Religion is a big asset of the book (Hans G.\n Kippenberg, Regulierungen der Religionsfreiheit: Von der Allgemeinen \nErkl\u00e4rung der Menschenrechte zu den urteilen\n des Europ\u00e4ischen Gerichtshofs f\u00fcr Menschenrechte, Baden-Baden: Nomos, \n2019, 190 pp.).\n\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
