But to date, little has been written on the active role that religious actors and advocacy groups play in this process. This important book does just that. It examines how Jehovah’s Witnesses, Muslims, Sikhs, Evangelicals, Christian conservatives and their global support networks have litigated the right to freedom of religion at the European Court of Human Rights over the past 30 years. Drawing on in-depth interviews with NGOs, religious representatives, lawyers and legal experts, it is a powerful study of the social dynamics that shape transnational legal mobilisation and the ways in which legal mobilisation shapes discourses and conflict lines in the field of transnational law.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction: Transnationalisation, Judicialisation and the Regulation of Religion\u003c\/b\u003e From the National to the Transnational Regulation of Religion  Religious Freedom Advocacy in a Transnational Legal Field  Trajectories of Legal Mobilisation: Empirical Observations  Contributions Chapter Outline  \u003cb\u003e1.
