This book compiles recent research into the intersection between law and religion within the common law tradition. Working across jurisdictions, it will be of interest to religious studies and law students and researchers.
The intersection of law and religion is a growing area of study for academics working in both subject areas. This book draws together research on several collisions between the two arenas, including a study of religious clauses in the US constitution and the interplay between religion and law in Canada, Australia and South Africa. With an emphasis on common law traditions, this book will be essential reading for researchers and advanced students of law and religion.
