Even if international human rights law does not explicitly take a position on the proper relationship between religion and the state, it may still be possible to derive legal arguments concerning the relative advisability of various systems from international human rights law, argues Temperman (public international law, Erasmus U. Rotterdam, the Netherlands), who scrutinizes different state-religion relationships as to their impact and effects on the implementation of norms of international human rights law. He begins by providing a legal analysis of the different ways in which states relate to religion in a global comparative constitutional survey and complementary examination of relevant statutory laws and state practice. He then presents thematic case studies exploring how state-religion identification impacts on such rights as freedom of expression, freedom of association, fundamental civil and political rights, educational rights, and the equality or non-discrimination principle.
