Taylor & Francis Ltd Freedom of Speech in Universities
Freedom of speech and extremism in university campuses are major sources of debate and moral panic in the United Kingdom today. In 2018, the Joint Committee on Human Rights in Parliament undertook an inquiry into freedom of speech on campus. It found that much of the public concern is exaggerated, but identified a number of factors that require attention, including the impact of government counter-terrorism measures (the Prevent Duty) and regulatory bodies (including the Charity Commission for England and Wales) on freedom of speech.This book combines empirical research and philosophical analysis to explore these issues, with a particular focus on the impact upon Muslim students and staff. It offers a new conceptual paradigm for thinking about freedom of speech, based on deliberative democracy, and practical suggestions for universities in handling it.Topics covered include:The enduring legacy of key thinkers who have shaped the debate about freedom of spee

Taylor & Francis Ltd (Sales) Religion and Violence in South Asia
Book SynopsisDo religions justify and cause violence or are they more appropriately seen as forces for peace and tolerance? Featuring contributions from international experts in the field, this book explores the debate that has emerged in the context of secular modernity about whether religion is a primary cause of social division, conflict and war, or whether this is simply a distortion of the true' significance of religion and that if properly followed it promotes peace, harmony, goodwill and social cohesion. Focusing on how this debate is played out in the South Asian context, the book engages with issues relating to religion and violence in both its classical and contemporary formations. The collection is designed to look beyond the stereotypical images and idealized portrayals of the peaceful South Asian religious traditions (especially Hindu, Buddhist, Jain and Sufi), which can occlude their own violent histories and to analyze the diverse attitudes towards, andTrade Review'This is a wonderful collection combining excellent historical scholarship with incisive cultural critique. Religion and Violence: The South Asian Perspective is one of the very few books in this field to illuminate the present by an understanding of religious traditions. It is very well written and thus a good read both for students of social sciences and humanities. ' - Peter van der Veer, Utrecht University'...this edited volume has importance, not just for the discipline of the study of religin, but also for all subjects that engage with the links between religion, globalization and violence. This volume is long overdue.' - Tamsin Bradley, London Metropolitan University, UKThis volume is highly recommended for graduate courses and for scholars interested in violence and religion. - Frederick M.
