The Place of Religion in Family Law: A Comparative Search cover

To what extent does family law accommodate, deny, support or reflect the existence of religion and religious belief in a range of jurisdictions and throughout various family and social situations? This collection of comparative essays brings together reflections on a range of religions, including Islam, Judaism and Roman Catholicism. With insights, both historical and contemporary, from Ireland, Israel, Malta, Sweden, Russia, Turkey and the UK, it seeks to discover the place which religion has or might have within family law.

'[i]t will hopefully function as a catalyst for further examination of the intricacies of the interaction [between religion and family law].' Jacqueline Gray in European Journal of Law Reform 2012, 534
