Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book generally discusses three main topics connected to the situation of Muslims in Dutch society. First of all, attention is given to the subject of faith and rituals such as the existing mystical orders, mosque sermons and the institutionalization of ritual slaughter. The second subject deals with Islam and the second-generation Muslims in the Netherlands. In this context, the situation of the so-called runaway girls and education in general are discussed. Special attention is given to the development and functioning of Islamic schools and to the education in one's own language and culture. The last topic deals with Muslim organizations, their development and role in the emancipation of these religious groups in Dutch society. Furthermore, obstacles hindering the establishment of a Muslim council on a national level are thoroughly discussed. This book can be of interest to various categories of people, such as scholars (theologians, social scientists, lawyers), policy makers, and those who, through their profession, are in regular contact with members of the Muslim community in the Netherlands.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The permanent presence of Islam and Muslims is a comparatively recent phenomenon in most countries of the European Union. Over the last few decades many initiatives have been launched by Muslim communities in the European Union to create infrastructural provisions for their religious life, within the existing legal and social frameworks. In fact, all countries of the European Union share the principles of religious freedom and non-discrimination in their respective Constitutions. However, the precise way in which these principles are interpreted and applied to Islam depends largely on the historical traditions concerning the relation between State and Religion, which differ from one country to another. differences are reflected in recent developments in the communication between the States and their Muslim communities, both at national, regional and municipal levels. they are also reflected in recent developments in legislation and jurisprudence concerning the most essential Islamic core-values, such as dietary laws, the precepts on modest dress, Islamic burial practices and the possibilities to found Islamic cemeteries, as well as the observance of Friday prayers and annual holidays. legal position of Islam in the countries of the European Union, the authors of this volume discuss the challenges posed by the presence of Islam to the Western European system of relationships between law and religion. They argue, that these challenges necessitate reforms within the relevant European legislation, but differ as to their precise nature. They also discuss the difficulties of this task, as these adjustments will alter a longstanding balance of rights and privileges recognised by different religious denominations. creation of a truly multicultural Europe also necessitates fighting against the negative image of Islam and Muslims (anti-Muslimism or Islamophobia) prevailing in most of its member states Religious Freedom and the Neutrality of the State: The Position of Islam in the European Union Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Clean internals. Inner hinges are sound and not split. 312 pp 8vo. This book is the autobiography of Dr. Shadid, a Syrian-American physician who founded the Community Hospital of Elk City, Oklahoma in 1929. This groundbreaking institution was the first consumer-owned, cooperative hospital in the United States.The book serves as both a personal memoir and a passionate manifesto for reforming the American healthcare system. He tells about his journey as an immigrant from Syria who worked his way through medical school. His early years or practicing medicine was in rural America where he was exposed to the devastating economic realities of healthcare. He witnessed low-income families going bankrupt from medical bills or avoiding necessary care entirely due to cost.Driven by the belief that doctors should be incentivized to keep people healthy rather than profit off their illnesses, Shadid proposed a cooperative business model. In his system, local families pooled their resources by buying shares to build a hospital. In exchange, they received affordable, prepaid medical and surgical care. This brought the wrath of the AMA and law suits which were successfully defended the courts. This was a historic defense of prepaid group practice, laying the early philosophical and structural groundwork for modern Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) and consumer-advocated healthcare.
