THE FOURTH ICLARS CONFERENCE

Freedom of/for/from/in Religion: Differing Dimensions of a Common Right?

SEPTEMBER 8–11, 2016

ST. HUGH’S COLLEGE, OXFORD, U.K.

Freedom of religion or belief (FoRB), once considered to be the “first” freedom, has become a controversial right. In particular, the practical possibility of implementing FoRB in impartial ways are increasingly questioned. Critics argue that FoRB cannot deliver what it promises: an equal share of freedom for people of different or no religion. Further, it is claimed that the right of FoRB, as it is regulated in international and constitutional law, is intrinsically biased because it reflects its Western and Christian origins.

Part of the problem is due to the fact that FoRB is a complex notion, including different dimensions that require careful consideration. Freedom of religion or belief, as a right recognized for every human being, is the first dimension, but not the only one. Freedom from religion, that is the right to live one’s life without being compelled to perform religious acts, is another and freedom for religion, which concerns the institutional side of this right (what was once called “libertas ecclesiae”) is a third dimension that demands consideration. Finally, freedom in religion concerns the rights that the faithful (and sometimes not so faithful) are entitled to enjoy within their religious communities.

These four dimensions of FoRB are the focus of the fourth conference of the International Consortium for Law and Religion Studies. A plenary session will be devoted to each of them and a number of parallel sessions will explore the implication of these four dimensions (see the attached provisional program). A session devoted to young scholars will help launch the conference and two final sessions addressed by  representatives of law and religion centers and journals will complete the program.

Regulação, Direitos Humanos e Religião (Livro)

REGULAÇÃO, DIREITOS HUMANOS E RELIGIÃO: O PROBLEMA DO ENQUADRAMENTO DOS IMPRESSOS RELIGIOSOS NO REGIME DE REGULAÇÃO DA PUBLICIDADE NO REINO UNIDO

De: Rodrigo Vitorino Souza Alves

RESUMO: A distribuição de impressos religiosos no Reino Unido tem sido incluída no regime da regulação da publicidade, com vistas à aplicação das normas e standards deste regime àquela atividade. O presente trabalho questiona esse enquadramento, ao investigar o problema da regulação da comunicação social em matéria de exercício da liberdade religiosa vis-à-vis os limites intrínsecos da regulação da publicidade e a limitação externa pelas normas definidoras dos direitos humanos. Depois de descrever o sistema regulatório da publicidade do Reino Unido e de discutir os casos relevantes no âmbito da Advertising Standards Authority – ASA à luz da liberdade religiosa, concluiu-se pela inadequação da atividade regulatória nos casos estudados e pela impropriedade da regulação stricto sensu para as atividades religiosas em geral, reconhecendo-se ainda a qualificada proteção atribuída pelos tratados internacionais à liberdade religiosa, que exige o atendimento aos critérios deles constantes para a imposição de quaisquer restrições. 

PALAVRAS-CHAVE: regulação; publicidade; liberdade religiosa; proselitismo.
