Book Review: Law And Religion: Current Legal Issues 2001 - Volume 4, S. I. Strong Nov 2002

Book Review: Law And Religion: Current Legal Issues 2001 - Volume 4, S. I. Strong

Faculty Publications

As volume four of Current Legal Issues demonstrates, commentary on the interplay between law and religion in the UK is growing, although the subject still attracts nowhere near the level of attention it does in other countries. The newest addition to the literature constitutes a welcome advance to lawyers working or interested in the field.

However, the choice of topics is sound even when one sets aside the current interest in the interplay between law and religion.


Islamic Law And Ambivalent Scholarship, Khaled Abou El Fadl May 2002

Islamic Law And Ambivalent Scholarship, Khaled Abou El Fadl

Michigan Law Review

This book reminds me of the image of the arrogantly condescending and blustering tourist in Cairo who drifts into a store that has taken the trouble of prominently displaying the price of their commodities in nicely typed tags. Nevertheless, the tourist walks in, reads the price tag, and then proclaims, "Okay, what is the real price?" The poor store employee stares at him with incredulity, and simply repeats the price on the tag, and, in response, the tourist emits this knowing and smug smile as if saying, "I know you guys, you never mean what you say; everything in Arab …
