Featuring contributions from a diverse group of scholars, policymakers, and human rights activists, it explores how religious intolerance manifests globally and what can be done to counteract it. The essays discuss a variety of religious discrimination cases, analyzing both historic and contemporary contexts, and focus on the impact of laws, policies, and social practices that marginalize religious groups. Particular attention is given to the international legal frameworks designed to combat discrimination, including human rights treaties and the role of international organizations such as the United Nations. The contributors also examine the intersection of religion with other forms of discrimination, such as race, gender, and ethnicity, offering interdisciplinary perspectives on religious freedom and rights.
