This chapter discusses how Cold War geopolitical exigencies provided long-time immigration reform advocates like Italian Americans with a narrow window of opportunity to challenge the draconian immigration system in place in the United States since the Immigration Act of 1924 and mobilize for reform. After two decades of failed attempts, Italian Americans, thanks to the help and support they received from the American Catholic Church, finally created a successful immigration reform advocacy organization, the American Committee on Italian Migration (ACIM), which subsequently emerged as one of the leading actors for the immigration reform overhaul of 1965. The Church provided the group with the ideology, the resources, and the connections to be successful, while simultaneously shielding it from accusations of disloyalty.

This chapter illustrates an asymmetric comparative international law approach to treaty interpretation through the example of the CEDAW Committee’s greater willingness to go beyond a margin of appreciation to tolerate progressive deviations rather than regressive deviations in the interpretation of CEDAW’s provisions. Section I examines the interactions between the CEDAW Committee and states parties. Section II discusses how the Committee’s asymmetric approach to treaty interpretation fits within a comparative international law project. Section III provides an introduction to the CEDAW Committee. Section IV illustrates the CEDAW Committee’s inflexible treatment of Muslim states parties’ reservations to the Convention, which constitute regressive deviations. Section V analyzes the Committee’s permissive treatment of the Scandinavian approach to CEDAW. Section VI explores how the asymmetric approach allows states to develop interpretations of treaties. Section VII concludes and describes potential future avenues of research into the asymmetric comparative international law approach to treaty interpretation.

What do the religious and spiritual lives of American young people look like as they reach their mid to late 20s, enter the full-time job market, and start families? In Back Pocket God, the authors provide a look beyond conflicting stories that argue that emerging adults either are overwhelmingly leaving religion or are earnest spiritual seekers maintaining a significant place in their lives for religion. Denton and Flory show that while the dominant trend among young people is a move away from religious beliefs and institutions, there is also a parallel trend in which a small, religiously committed group of emerging adults claim faith as an important fixture in their lives. Yet, whether religiously committed or not, emerging adults are increasingly personalizing, customizing, and compartmentalizing religion in ways that suit their idiosyncratic desires. For emerging adults, God has become increasingly remote yet is highly personalized to meet their particular needs. In the process, they have transformed their conception of God from a powerful being or force that exists “out there” to their own personal “Pocket God”—a God that they can carry around with them but that exerts little power or influence in their daily lives. God functions, in a sense, like a smartphone app—readily accessible, easy to control, and useful but only for limited purposes. Back Pocket God shows the changing relationship between emerging adults and religion, providing a window into the future of religion and, more broadly, American culture.

The first aspect of Johann Metz’s account of becoming fully human is to honor how deeply our sense of self and capacity to flourish depend on a network of relationships with God, others, and the rest of creation. Students’ reflections demonstrate that, in order to become fully human, we must let go of the belief fueled by popular culture that self-worth, success, and happiness result from a lifestyle marked by self-sufficiency, competition, perfectionism, wealth, materialism, and high social status. Instead, recalling our special dignity as persons created in the image of God, we must reclaim a vision of our intrinsic self-worth and embrace our interdependence on God and others. Both my students’ and Johann Metz’s analyses of Western culture shed light on why hookups appear psychologically safer and more “reasonable” than committed relationships.

This chapter discusses the centrality of the invisible church for Bunyan and his readers. Called to lead the Bedford congregation in 1671, Bunyan was committed to defending and building the visible church, but its purpose was to nurture souls on the pilgrimage to heaven, the invisible church of glory whose members were known only by God. Doctrinal works on the theology of justification, polemical works on ‘things indifferent’ (such as baptism) or on essentials of faith, and pastoral works on the spiritual conditions of his readers, all attest to Bunyan’s single-minded focus on the invisible church in the 1670s. Religious toleration, like the visible church, was not a good in itself but a means to an end: the ‘desired countrey’ of union with God, the imagined community outside of time that made the present an interval of remembrance and anticipation.

Al-Shahrastānī’s (d. 548/1153) Wrestling Match with the Falāsifa (Muṣāraʿat al-falāsifa) is the second book of refutation of Ibn Sīnā’s (Avicenna, d. 428/1037) philosophy by a Muslim philosopher and theologian. While al-Ghazālī tried to prove the nondemonstrative character of Ibn Sīnā’s teachings, al-Shahrastānī “wrestles” with Ibn Sīnā about what is true to say about God. Heavily influenced by the cosmology of the Ismāʿīlite Shīʿites of his day, al-Shahrastānī claims that God is too transcendent to be included in divisions of what is existent. God is beyond the dichotomy of existence and nonexistence. Equally God is not “simplicity” (wāḥda) the way Ibn Sīnā claims. Rather, words like “existence” and “simplicity” apply to God only in an equivocal way rather than univocal or, as Ibn Sīnā claims, moderated. Most mistakes in philosophical theology are committed, so al-Shahrastānī, because equivocal terms are wrongfully understood to be univocal.

Prime Minister Shastri was not willing to deviate from the policy of Nehru. Sant Fateh Singh declared that he would go on fast unto death on 10 September 1965. But in view of the war with Pakistan he decided to postpone his fast. The Home Minister, Gulzari Lal Nanda, announced the creation of a Cabinet Sub-Committee to advise a Parliamentary Consultative Committee for ‘a co-operative solution’. Before this Committee could present its report, the Congress Working Committee passed a resolution on 9 March 1966 in favour of constituting a Punjabi-speaking state. Due to the terms of reference given to the Boundary Commission using the census of 1961, the Bhakra Dam and Chandigarh fell outside the Punjab. Subsequently, Chandigarh was made a union territory and the Bhakra Dam was placed under the Government of India. A ‘crippled’ state was inaugurated on 1 November 1966.

The product of a forty-year career of sociological research, British Gods is a comprehensive survey of contemporary Britain’s faith climate. Bruce has returned to a number of towns and villages that were the subject of detailed community studies in the 1950s and 1960s to see how the status, nature, and popularity of religion have changed. Those restudies—supported by a large body of survey data and statistical evidence on such measures of religious interest as baptisms, church weddings, church membership, and church attendance—provide a springboard for exploring such general issues as the status of the clergy, the churches’ attempts to find new roles, the growth of non-Christian religions, the changing nature of superstition, links between religion and violence, the impact of the charismatic movement, the ordination of women, New Age spirituality, arguments over moral issues such as abortion and gay rights, the effect of social class on belief, the impact of religion on British politics, and the ways that local social structures strengthen or weaken religion. The final chapter considers the obstacles to any religious revival and concludes that the current stock of religious knowledge is so depleted, religion so unpopular, and committed believers so scarce that any significant reversal of religion’s decline in Britain is unlikely.

This chapter explores the subsidiary organs of the Security Council, which commonly refer to the Council's sanctions committees, counter-terrorism committees, and working groups. Another interpretation includes peacekeeping operations, tribunals, commissions, special representatives, good offices missions, an ombudsperson, sanctions monitoring groups, and other individuals or groups requested to perform specified tasks. A subsidiary organ of the Security Council (also known as a subsidiary body) can conduct its operations at UN Headquarters or in the field. Some subsidiary organs have been given tasks of short duration, whereas others have a long-term existence, and still others are activated only when there is work to be done. Some subsidiary bodies, such as sanctions committees, are composed of representatives of some or all members of the Council, whereas others, such as tribunals, may have an entirely separate composition.

Bodies such as the Legal Risk Review Committee, Financial Law Panel, and Financial Markets Law Committee are now considered part of the ‘legal infrastructure’ of the wholesale financial markets. Also — and in a broad legal and conduct risk context — the rules, policies, and practices of the Financial Conduct Authority are of great, and growing, significance. Two highly influential bodies — The Banking Standards Board and the FICC Market Standards Board — are now tasked with defining and sustaining good practice standards for the banking and wholesale markets respectively, and to this extent, the work of these bodies will represent norms of behaviour that can be expected in the lawful discharge of duties.

To the Gates of Jerusalem examines the origins, deliberations, and final report of the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry Regarding the Problems of European Jewry and Palestine. The committee, of which U.S. diplomat James G. McDonald was a member, was created in November 1945 by the British Labour government and the Truman administration to address the humanitarian problem faced after World War II by Jews who survived the Holocaust. The diaries deal solely with this humanitarian plight and discuss only British and American policies. They reflect McDonald’s staunch support for the cause of the Holocaust survivors.

Augustine’s employment of some (ultimately) Aristotelian concepts and distinctions, such as from the work On the Soul, helped him to develop his own account of the human being as a single-substance body-soul compound, and a correlative theory of death. The recovery of his view involves some work, because he does not always explain how he thinks the core theses to which he is committed play out in detail. Nevertheless it is possible when we use his Literal Meaning of Genesis to illuminate the City of God, Book 13. The former text contains the most extended presentation of Augustine’s natural philosophy. It employs concepts from classical metaphysics—such as matter, body, form, and potentiality—which, along with some of the Aristotelian categories, are recognizable again in the City of God, a work that he commenced as he was completing the Genesis commentary.

John Woolman’s ministry efforts translated his vision of God’s will for human affairs into the physical realm. This state of union with God entailed an outward dimension consistent with the transformed state Woolman believed God intended for creation. Woolman was committed to his religious community and viewed himself as representing the best of what colonial society would become. He understood himself to be a prophet like the Hebrew prophet Jeremiah, and so he believed his actions to be within the prophetic tradition. This chapter explores Woolman’s sense of commissioning to the prophetic role and his conceptions of what such a role entailed. Then, this chapter demonstrates that the content of Woolman’s message was the application of his vision to human affairs. This message declared God’s claim over the whole world, renounced idolatrous influences, and challenged the alienation of sin.

This chapter describes fiscal squeeze in the early 1930s against the backdrop of global financial crisis and the Great Depression—fiscal squeeze less severe on financial outcomes data than the 1920s but with more dramatic political consequences. This episode comprises a hard revenue squeeze initiated by the UK’s second Labour Government in 1930 and an expert committee (the May Committee) to recommend spending cuts, followed after the collapse of that government by a hard expenditure squeeze under a ‘National’ Government. This episode includes constitutional crisis (with the formation of an emergency coalition government without an election to pursue fiscal squeeze), a naval mutiny sparked by pay cuts that forced the currency off the gold standard, a split in the Labour Party which reverberated for decades, and the greatest electoral victory in modern British history for a coalition government that had just enacted significant spending cuts, including reductions in unemployment benefit.

Chapter 6 argues that Socrates’s speech in Plato’s Symposium contains a compelling account of the role of mid-scale actions or pursuits in human motivation. This account, the chapter argues, effectively responds to a long-standing charge against ancient ethics, namely, that it is exclusively concerned with the agent’s own happiness. The Symposium offers a list of typical human pursuits: having children, producing artifacts, earning a living through work, creating art, writing laws, formulating theories, and more. These pursuits are kinds of making. The agent’s commitment to that which is made extends her motivations beyond her own life. Once we are committed to such pursuits, they make demands on us that go beyond self-interest. The very way in which human beings desire happiness propels them into pursuits that are devoted to the good, pulling them away from what might appear to be, on narrow notions, their own happiness.

A new ontological argument schema for the existence of a necessary being is presented. Several ways to fill in this schema are shown, based upon different conceptions of “positive property.” The argument is made that at least one of these senses matches an intuitive, prephilosophical concept on which the premises are plausible. This argument has certain advantages over ontological arguments for God. In particular, it is explained how one could find the premises in the argument plausible without being committed to premises that entail the stronger thesis that there must be a perfect being. There follows a discussion of an objection Oppy raises against an ontological argument for the stronger thesis, and an explanation of how the argument put forward in the chapter avoids that objection.
