Abstract: Religion in general, and Islam in particular, has become one of the main focal points of policy-making and constitutional politics in many Western liberal states. This article proposes to examine the legal and political dynamics behind new regulations targeting individual religious practices of Muslims. Although one could presuppose that church-state relations or the understanding of secularism is the main factor accounting for either accommodation or prohibition of Muslim religious practices, I make the case that the policy frame used to conceptualize the integration of immigrants in each national context is a more significant influence on how a liberal state approaches the legal regulation of individual practices such as veiling. However, this influence must be assessed carefully since it may have different effects on the different institutional actors in charge of regulating religion, such as the Courts and the legislature. To assess these hypotheses I compare two countries, France and Canada, which are solid examples of two contrasting national policy frames for the integration of immigrants. 摘要：一般来说，宗教，尤其是伊斯兰教已经成为许多西方自由主义国家决策和宪政的主要的关注点之一。这篇文章建议检查针对穆斯林的个人宗教习俗的新规背后的法律和政治动力。虽然一个人可以预料政教关系或对世俗主义的理解是包容或禁止穆斯林宗教习俗的主要解释因素，但我认为在每个国家的背景下用于概念化的移民融入的政策框架更显著地影响一个自由国家如何处理个人的习俗，如戴面纱的法律规制。然而，这种影响必须审慎评估，因为它可能对不同的负责管理宗教、法院和立法机关的机构有不同的影响。为了评估这些假设，我比较了两个国家，即法国和加拿大，它们是在移民的融入国家政策框架有明显差异的两个坚实的例子。 作者: Lepinard, Eleonore 来源：ETHNICITI 卷:15期: 5页: 611-632 出版年: OCT 2015 (责任编辑：admin) |
