Series: Hart Monographs in Transnational and International Law

The judicialisation of religious freedom conflicts is long recognised. 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.

Reviews for Faith in Courts: Human Rights Advocacy and the Transnational Regulation of Religion

Faith in Courts is an enlightening work that navigates the intricate terrain of religion and litigation. Through her analysis, [Lisa] Harms invites readers to engage in a deeper exploration of the complexities surrounding the intersection of religion and justice, and she makes an important contribution to understanding the evolving relationship between religion and the courts at a transnational level. -- Marieke Roos, European Parliament * The International Journal for Religious Freedom *
