The 5th Conference of the Australian Association for Mission Studies, Whitley College, Melbourne, 2-5 July 2017
This book is the creatively titled, collective output of the international mission scholars and mission practitioners who gathered at Whitley College, Melbourne, for the 5th Conference of the Australian Association for Mission Studies, July 2017.
Together in this volume, theologians and missiologists contribute to the vitally important public debate about the place of indigenous peoples, migrants and refugees in Australia and elsewhere. Theoretical and practical themes are considered in the light of a shared commitment to biblical and theological interpretation, reflection and application. In doing so, the authors have contributed towards clarifying the task of missiology in previously unimagined contexts.
The Australian Association for Mission Studies is a member body of the International Association for Mission Studies and gathers missiologists and theologians from a wide range of different Christian traditions. For further information visit www.missionstudies.org.au.

Описание: Whilst a number of important theoretical works concerning legal pluralism in the context of cultural rights have been published, little has been published specifically on religion. Religion and Legal Pluralism explores the extent to which religious laws are already recognised by the state and the extent to which religious legal systems, such as Sharia law, should be accommodated.

Описание: This book provides an unprecedented portrayal of a lively shari'a court in contemporary West Jerusalem, which belongs to the Israeli legal system but serves Palestinian residents of the eastern part of the city. It draws a rich picture of an intriguing institution, operating in an environment marked by legal pluralism and by exceptional political and cultural tensions. The book suggests an organizational-institutional approach to legal pluralism, which examines not only the relations between bodies of law but also the relations between courts of law serving the same population. Based on participant observations in the studied court as well as on textual and legal analyses of court cases and rulings, the study combines history and ethnography, diachronic and synchronic perspectives, and examines broad, macro-political processes as well as micro-level interactions. The book offers fresh perspectives on the phenomenon of legal pluralism, on shari'a law in practice and on Palestinian-Israeli relations in the divided city of Jerusalem. The work is a valuable resource for academics and researchers working in the areas of Legal Pluralism, Islamic Law, and socio-legal history of the Middle East.

Описание: Focuses on the idea of equality as a moral, political and jurisprudential concept. This book provides an understanding of the nature of the value that the law is trying to uphold - equality. It rejects the notion that the concept of equality is vacuous and defends the idea as the proper range of ultimate moral concern.
Описание: ‘...This book […] goes beyond stating what the law is and focuses on controversies occurring within this area of the law... an excellent introduction to this complex area of international law for newcomers to the subject’ Kate Miles, Australian International Law Journal The updated edition of this acclaimed book offers a critical overview of the law of foreign investment, incorporating a thorough analysis of the principles and standards of treatment available to foreign investors in international law. It is authoritative and multi-layered, offering an analysis of the key issues and an insightful assessment of recent trends in the case law, from both developed and developing country perspectives. A major feature of the book is that it deals with the tension between the law of foreign investment and other competing principles of international law. In doing so, it proposes ways of achieving a balance between these principles and the need to protect the legitimate rights and expectations of foreign investors on the one hand, and the need not to restrict unduly the right of host governments to implement their public policy on the other, including the protection of the environment and human rights, and the promotion of social and economic justice within the host country.Many of the pioneering ideas that were advanced in the first edition of this book in 2008 have been taken up by governments and international organisations in their attempts to reform the investor-State dispute settlement mechanism and strike a balance between different competing principles in developing international investment law. Accordingly, this fourth edition captures the essence of the ongoing multiple reform processes -either planned or envisaged – currently underway.
Описание: This book critically assesses categorical divisions between indigenous individual and collective rights regimes embedded in the foundations of international human rights law.

Описание:
Human rights and their principles of interpretation are the leading legal paradigms of our time. Freedom of religion occupies a pivotal position in rights discourses, and the principles supporting its interpretation receive increasing attention from courts and legislative bodies. This book critically evaluates religious pluralism as an emerging legal principle arising from attempts to define the boundaries of freedom of religion. It examines religious pluralism as an underlying aspect of different human rights regimes and constitutional traditions. It is, however, the static and liberal shape religious pluralism has assumed that is taken up critically here. In order to address how difference is vulnerable to elimination, rather than recognition, the book takes up a contemporary ethics of alterity. More generally, and through its reconstruction of a more difference-friendly vision of religious pluralism, it tackles the problem of the role of rights in the era of diverse narratives of emancipation.
Описание: This book examines and analyses the concept of diachronic development and variability of time and place within the Islamic tradition and relevant Muslim views which can frame the debates on pluralism and democracy in a modern Islamic context.
