Описание: This book offers a cross-national analysis of judicial decisions and legislative action in three religiously pluralistic Western democracies-the United States, France, and the Netherlands-that shows how each balances individual rights with communal bonds and adheres to or retreats from human rights norms for women and religious practices.
Описание: Navigating Neutrality explores the unexpected role George Washington’s 1793 Neutrality Proclamation played in energizing the U.S. government’s constitutional responsibilities to support and promote America’s commercial and sovereign interests. Designed to avoid warfare as Great Britain and France battled in the Atlantic during the French Revolutionary Wars, neutrality encompassed a wide range of issues, including diplomacy, law, defense, commerce, and domestic politics.Proclaiming neutrality proved easier than enforcing it. American citizens eagerly accepted lucrative French privateering commissions, and Britain retaliated by attacking American ships, cargos, and sailors. In response, Washington and his cabinet formulated policies to enforce neutrality across all three branches of the government and around the globe. Maritime citizens, stranded in the Caribbean and Mediterranean, especially came to appreciate the government’s rescue efforts. As Sandra Moats shows, enforcing neutrality galvanized all three branches of the nascent U.S. government, serving as a manifesto of the young nation’s quest to be respected in its independence and helping to build a U.S. government capable of supporting its global aspirations.

Описание: A provocative analysis of net neutrality and a call to democratize online communication
This short book is both a primer that explains the history and politics of net neutrality and an argument for a more equitable framework for regulating the internet. Pickard and Berman argue that we should see access to the internet no longer as a commodity but as a public good necessary for sustaining democratic society in the twenty-first century.
They aim to reframe the threat to net neutrality as more than a Manichean conflict between content providers like Netflix and internet service providers like Comcast but as part of the much wider project to commercialize the public sphere and undermine the free speech essential for democracy. Readers will come away with a better understanding of the key concepts underpinning the net neutrality battle and rallying points for future action to democratize online communication.

Описание: Claudia E. Haupt provides a comparative analysis of the constitutional law of religion-state relations in the United States and Germany. In Germany, neutrality means more distance between religion and the state, whereas the opposite is the case in the United States. But neutrality has multiple meanings in both countries.
