Inhaltsangabe

As a fundamental institution of human societies, law is a deeply influential factor in individual and social activity. Yet, its normative status is controversial, particularly in pluralistic, secularised societies. Is law essentially the result of legislative creation and juridical interpretation, or can and should it reflect ethical values and imperatives? If it can, what are the sources of those imperatives, and how do they achieve the necessary degree of social consensus in religiously diverse societies that are increasingly globalised and globalising as a consequence of culture, commerce, communication and immigration? This book contributes to the consideration of these questions. Its contributors include academics from the U.S. and Europe, as well Hans Kng, the author of the 1993 �Declaration Towards a Global Ethic� adopted by the Parliament of World Religions, and Stephan Schlensog, General Secretary of the Global Ethic Foundation of T�bingen, Germany. With contributions from: Jochen von Bernstorff, Timothy L. Fort, Peter G. Kirchschlaeger, Markus Kotzur, Hans K�ng, Brian D. Lepard, Joshua E. Perry, Stephan Schlensog and Bradley Shingleton.
