Paperback. Condizione: Sehr gut. 286 p. Ein sehr gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ A very good and clean copy. - Content: Introduction Chapter One Outlaw Religion Chapter Two The Trial: The Plaintiffs Chapter Three The Trial: The Other Wimesses Chapter Four Legal Religion Chapter Five Free Religion Appendices Appendix A: Relevant Law: Excerpts from U.S. and Florida Constitutions, RFRA, FRFRA, and Rules and Regulations of Boca Raton Cemetery Appendix B: Expert Reports of Broyde, Katz, McGuckin, Pals, and Sullivan Appendix C: Ryskamp Opinion. The Constitution may guarantee it. But legal protection for religious freedom in America is, in faet, impossible. So argues this timely and iconoclastic work by law and religion scholar Winnifred Sullivan. Sullivan uses as the backdrop for the book the trial of Warren vs. Boca Raton, a recent case concerning regulations banning certain memorials from a multiconfessional nondenomi-national cemetery in Boca Raton, Florida. The book portrays the unsuccess-ful struggle of Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish families in Boca Raton to preserve the practice of placing such religious artifacts as crosses and stars of David on the graves of the city-owned burial ground. Sullivan demonstrates how, during the course of the proceeding, citizens from all walks of life and religious backgrounds were harassed to define just what their religion is. She argues that their plight points up a shocking truth: religion cannot be coherently defined for the purposes of American law, because religious freedom in the United States means that Americans decide for themselves what their religion is, without answering to any religious authority. A clear-eyed look at the laws created to protect religious freedom, this vigorously argued book offers a new take on a right deemed by many to be necessary for a free democratic society. It will have broad appeal not only for religion scholars, but also for anyone interested in law and the Constitution. Winnifred Fallers Sullivan is Associate Professor of Law and Director of the Law and Religion Program at the University of Buffalo, The State University of New York. She is also the author of Paying the Words Extra: Religious Discourse in the Supreme Court of the United States. ISBN 9780691130583 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 441.…
