Policies and Politics of Teaching Religion

ISBN: 9781474224697 出版年：2015 页码：161 Theodor Hanf Karim El Mufti Bloomsbury Publishing

In states in which the public role of religion is controversial, religious instruction becomes both a means and an end of politics. This groundbreaking collection of case studies drawn from Arab, Asian and European countries examines different aspects of religious instruction: how it is regulated, who decides its content, the values it imparts and, in particular, whether it triggers, deepens or reduces conflict.
