Maurits Berger (ed.): Applying Sharia in the West. Facts, Fears and the Future of Islamic Rules on Family Relations in the West [1014]
2016
Abstract
A new book edited by Maurits Berger presents competing visions of sharia as imagined in modern Western societies today. It opens with contradictory quotations from two leading European authorities: the European Court for Human Rights, which has postulated sharia's incompatibility with human rights, and the Archbishop of Canterbury, who claims the opposite.
