Abstract:

Abstract Religion has always been, to a certain extent, mediated. Communication practices are at the core of religious communities, but it is in recent decades that the rapid developments of media technologies have created new possibilities for interactions about religion. In this context, a focus on religious minorities represents a unique opportunity for scholars to analyze the internet in nuanced ways within the framework of digital religion. Through the analysis of minority groups, the internet can be understood both as a space of empowerment of marginal voices and as a venue that further

Abstract:

AbstractThe article discusses the question of how Israel ought to treat its minority religions and whether its actual policies towards them accord with her moral and constitutional obligations. The first part of the paper offers three arguments purporting to show that Israel is justified in granting privileged status to the Jewish religion over other religions, and rejects each of them in turn. In particular, it rejects the view that Israel is allowed to privilege Judaism over other religions as far as the funding of religious services and needs is concerned. Nonetheless, the possibility that,

Abstract:

AbstractResearch has documented that religious minorities often face the brunt of religious discrimination. Yet formal tests, using global collections, have been lacking. Building on the religious economy theory and recent work in law and politics, we propose that minority religions face discrimination from the state because they represent unwanted competition for the state supported religion, are viewed as a threat to the state and larger culture, and lack support from an independent judiciary. Drawing on the recently collected Religion and State-Minorities collection on more than 500 minorit

Abstract:

Translation is an important method to understand different languages and cultures. It brings universe a global village. Religious translations play a vital role in understanding different religions. Every Religion has its own principles and way of worshipping. In a country some people are in majority and some are in minority by religion. It is an important point that majority people do not take control on minority and brings minority under their control. So religious translations play a role in understanding the different theories and laws of different religions. In this way, religious transla

AbstractFor many people, the central issue regarding freedom of religion involves the freedom to practice one's chosen religion without burdensome governmental interference. For others, the problems can be very muddled between the struggle for free exercise within state established religions and free exercise for minority religious adherents in nations' with state established religions. This comment examines some of the conflicting options for minority religious adherents in Malaysia and analyzes some of the procedural boundaries faced by minority religious adherents with a special emphasis on

Abstract This study examines the discursive construction of religion in Swedish newspaper articles on funerals during the covid-19 pandemic. Thirty articles from the six most prominent newspapers were analyzed using Multimodal cda and intersectionality. Most articles deal with religion as an institution, followed by religion as a group and individual religiosity. Religion is constructed in intersection with ethnicity and gender. The CoS is privileged, portraying Lutheran Christians as professionals. Minority religions are positioned as ‘the other’, something ‘problematic’ or ‘different’ from ‘

Abstract:

This thesis aims to explore and provide a better understanding of the ways in which religion and spirituality, as social constructs, impact on ethnic entrepreneurship. The choice to focus on religion and spirituality was informed by the gap in the literature as well as the increasing emphasis on the importance of integrating issues related to these sets of values in the wider contemporary business discourse. The research project is grounded in the mixed embeddedness framework and argues that, although very complex, this model focusses too much on opportunity structures, ethnic and social capit

Tension mounted when citizens of Syria called for their president, Bashar al-Assad, to step down from power. When government forces resisted the will of the people, and instead used force against them, the country descended into all-out war. Two distinct groups surfaced in opposition to one another, with opposition rebels fighting against the Syrian regime. But as the war progressed these two groups began to display religious characteristics. Opposition gr

The People's Republic of China has long demonstrated significant variation in its treatment of the diverse ethnic and religious minority groups that exist within its borders. Specialists in Chinese Regional Studies, especially those whose research focuses on Chinese ethnic minorities, tend to attribute this discrepancy in policy to ingrained racism or Han-chauvinism within the state apparatus. In contrast, Political Scientists tend to hypothesize that the state varies its policies to respond to groups that show the potential to mobilize and pose a threat to state authority.

Among all these rights, freedom of religion stood out for its special importance, which implies that every individual can freely profess the religion to which he belongs and, conversely, the right of an individual not to be a member

This study presents the doctrinal and dogmatic differences related to Sunni-Shia antagonism. The Sunni-Shia dispute is a historical religious dispute between the two largest Islamic denominations. To a very large extent, it is based on the understanding of the concept of “sect” used for centuries by Sunni theologians of the Shiite school of dogma. It was not until the 1960s that orthodox Islam was forced to recognize the existence of a minority with which it had doctrinal and legal differences.

This volume is part of the Intersections series which explores how the intertwining of gender, religious marginality, socioeconomic exclusion and other factors shape the realities of women and men in contexts where religious inequalities are acute, and freedom of religion or belief is compromised. This volume looks at these intersections in the context of Iraq. Its aim is to amplify the voices of women (and men) whose experiences of religious otherisation have accentuated the impact of the intersections of gender, class, geography and ethnicity. At time of publication, in December 2022, the co

Abstract:

Around the world, people with disabilities can be the most marginalised in society. Having a disability and being a member of a religious minority or an excluded social group can compound the reasons why some people find themselves on the outskirts of social systems which normally provide financial and moral support and a sense of identity and belonging. A recent study from India found that identity markers such as religion, caste and gender can exacerbate the exclusion already experienced by people with disabilities. Taking deliberate steps to strengthen the social inclusion of people with di

Abstract:

The theme of this special collection of papers, the lived experiences of women who belong to religious minorities, has been a blind spot both in international development policy engagement and in much of the international scholarship on women, security and peace. Women who belong to religious minorities, who are socioeconomically excluded and are vulnerable to multiple sources of gender-based violence in Pakistan seem to have fallen through the cracks of the ‘leave no one behind’ agenda. The aim of this volume is to shed light on the day-to-day experiences of women and their families who belon

Abstract:

Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine has intensified domestic repression targeting ethnic and religious minorities. Wartime mobilization policies have led to disproportionately high conscription and casualty rates among minority populations, while cultural and linguistic institutions have faced accelerated dismantling. Simultaneously, religious groups outside the Russian Orthodox Church have been subjected to surveillance, legal harassment, and the closure of places of worship under expanded extremism and national security laws. These patterns demonstrate how war has been used not only to p

Abstract:

Shia account for approximately 10–15 per cent of the Muslim population in Pakistan, which has a largely Sunni Muslim population. Anti-Shia violence, led by extremist militant groups, dates to 1979 and has resulted in thousands killed and injured in terrorist attacks over the years. Hazara Shia, who are both an ethnic and a religious minority, make an easy target for extremist groups as they are physically distinctive. The majority live in Quetta, the provincial capital of Balochistan in central Pakistan, where they have become largely ghettoised into two areas as result of ongoing attacks. Stu

Abstract:

Religious minority affiliation or status can play a very important role in influencing people's access to vaccines as well as their willingness to undergo vaccination. Many studies focus on class, ethnicity and geographic location when examining how social inequalities impact vaccination programmes. However, religious marginality is often overlooked. Here we explore how being situated on the margins, on account of religious affiliation, shapes experiences of vaccine access and uptake. The issues addressed are important for COVID-19 vaccination roll out, but also contain lessons for all vaccina

Abstract:

This working paper explores the challenges that emerge when public health measures to mitigate the risk of infection during an epidemic infringe on the rights of religious communities to say a final farewell to their loved ones according to their custom. The paper aims to answer these questions: how does epidemic response in the context of death and burials frame and impact religious minority rights? And in turn, how do sectarian dynamics reposition themselves in the context of epidemic response?
