Family law, religious marriage and sharia courts in western societies.

2019

The chapter analyses the way in which religious marriages and sharia courts interface with State's legal orders in some European countries, focusing on limping marriages and split of status, which derive by the existence of different and pall legal orders: the major, based on the principle of territoriality of the law, and the minor, organized on the personality of the law.

Etnografie del contemporaneo. Una introduzione siciliana

2016

The metalessic manipulation of space / time and its chronological relationships, the construction of competitive narratives between local and global, that according to the dominant rhetoric would produce unequivocal locality, defined in its relational and contextual aspects, are at the base of the "neo modern" society "Which becomes a field of cultural contestation and construction of the ethnorami of the neighborhood. The locality is a historical product and "the stories through which the localities emerge are eventually subject to the dynamics of the global" 9.

Chi si ferma è perduto!. Sosta del santo sotto casa del boss e turbatio sacrorum: un caso inedito di tutela giudiziaria del sentimento religioso

2022

This paper provides a critical analysis of a recent ruling in which the Supreme Court considered the stopping of a religious procession under the house of a well-known Mob boss to be criminally punishable for the crime of disturbance of a religious function. The Author then draws inspiration from this to make a more general reflection on the issue of criminal protection of sentiments.

Innenfra eller utenfra, faglig eller personlig? Perspektiver i religions- og livssynsundervisningen belyst ut fra internasjonal debatt

2019

Artikkelen drøfter to perspektivspenn knyttet til religions- og livssyns-undervisning: innenfra kontra utenfra og faglig kontra personlig. På bakgrunn av religionsvitenskapelige og religionsdidaktiske diskusjoner argumenteres det for et faglig perspektivmangfold i undervisningen. Det faglige innenfraperspektivet fremmer elevenes toleranse og kognitive empati med annerledes tenkende, samt at det gir mulighet for gjenkjennelse av eget livssyn. Det faglige utenfraperspektivet fremmer evnen til objektiv og kritisk vitenskapelig tenkning. Begge fremmer faglig innsikt. Selv om læreren kan være åpen om eget livssyn, skal dette ikke påvirke undervisningen. Elevenes individuelle livssynssammensetnin…

Høytidsmarkering i religiøst mangfoldige barnehager

2015

Based on the religions represented in the children's group, Norwegian kindergartens are required to have activities related to religious festivals. The requirement is aiming both on mutual interest, respect and tolerance between the children and on the recognition of the life world of the children affiliated with the religion in point. The study demonstrates that recognition of the Muslim festival Id al-fitr takes place in a very limited part of the kindergartens, and that the cooperation with parents is qualitatively different between majority and minority religions. We have also found that the kindergartens that recognized religious festivals aims their activities to affirm the Muslim chi…

Vom Ambo in der Kirche zum Cyberambo in den Medien Auf der Suche nach der Sprache der Verkündigung vom Evangelium in der Gegenwart am Beispiel der Ak…

2018

Fenomen o. Adama Szustaka OP tkwi w tym, że mówi do ludzi, zwłaszcza młodych, ich językiem, obrazowo i lekko, choć na poważne tematy. Potraf on łączyć sferę sacrum i profanum, bogato czerpiąc z codziennego świata i przekładając to na sprawy duchowe. Gdy dodamy do tego jego zdolność mówienia o sprawach najtrudniejszych prostym, dowcipnym, zrozumiałym dla każdego językiem, nie dziwi, skąd bierze się jego popularność u ludzi młodych. Działalność internetowa o. Szustaka ma zarówno zwolenników, jak i krytyków. Zarzuca się mu celebrytyzm, posądza o płytkość przekazu teologicznych treści. W obliczu swoistego internetowego fenomenu o. Szustaka jednak nie można przejść obojętnie. „Cyberambona” o. Sz…

Imagery and Religious Conversion. The Symbolic Function of Jonah 1:13

2018

Jonah 1:13 has a delaying function in the narrative, introducing a pause between Jonah’s demand to be thrown in the sea (1:12) and the event’s occurrence (1:15). Most commentators discuss only the events of 1:13 and their causes. In this article, I suggest an interpretation of Jonah 1:13 based on the imagery of the narrative. An analysis of the use of metaphors and symbols does not replace the message of the verse; such an analysis simply augments it with motives of the seamen’s conversion. Beside the narrative level, there is a hidden level suggesting a deeper understanding of the story where symbols and metaphors have a consolidating function. Distance, directions, and movement in Jonah 1…

Embodied Spirituality

2012

Published version of an article in the journal: Archive for the Psychology of Religion. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/157361212X645340 The main findings on embodied spirituality within the Toronto Blessing are presented in this article. The aim of this study is to interpret ecstatic religious experiences from a psychological point of view. The theoretical framework is interdisciplinary, using theories from ego-psychology, social psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology, and ritual theory. Regarding the latter notion, Thomas Csordas has developed cultural phenomenology, which is a culturally constructed way of understanding a situation through using bodi…
