The British colonial administrator and scholar Sir Reginald Fleming Johnston (1874-1938) travelled extensively in the Far East, developing a deep interest in Chinese culture and spirituality. His fourteen-year posting to the relatively quiet port of Weihaiwei allowed him to indulge this interest and to travel to places not usually visited by Europeans. Well acquainted with the philosophy of Confucius, Johnston had happily quoted the Confucian classics in his court judgments at Weihaiwei. In 1918, he was appointed tutor to the young Puyi (1906-67), who had been China's last emperor before his forced abdication. This 1934 publication, developed from lectures, presents an accessible interpretation of the tenets and fortunes of Confucianism, notably the impact of the New Culture Movement on the philosophy's place in Chinese society. Among other works, Johnston's Buddhist China (1913) and Twilight in the Forbidden City (1934) are also reissued in this series.

Como su propio título deja vislumbrar, esta monografía toma como punto de partida las reflexiones weberianas sobre las formas de dominación hierocrática, reflexiones que, lejos de asumirse acríticamente, se someten a un constante escrutinio científico, basado en el análisis de la documentación eclesiástica de los años finales del mundo antiguo. Esta labor crítica, llevada a cabo por un amplio elenco de filólogos e historiadores europeos, se ha centrado no sólo en la temática teórica de la dominación religiosa, sino en los artífices de la misma (monjes y obispos en particular) y en sus instrumentos de coerción espiritual y material, desde el sistema caritativo y el culto a los mártires a la sacralización de nuevos espacios religiosos y al hostigamiento de los enemigos tradicionales de la fe cristiana, esto es, paganos, herejes y judíos. El resultado final hará ver al lector cómo la espiritualidad sencilla y tolerante del cristianismo primitivo dio paso a unas estructuras de poder eclesial, alejadas, por una parte, de los principios evangélicos y responsables, por otra, de la piedad medieval que dominará en Europa durante largos siglos.

In Treading on Sacred Grounds: Places of Worship, Local Planning and Religious Freedom in Australia , Noel Villaroman analyses the engagement of religious groups with local councils in Australia in their applications to build places of worship. Such applications often encounter opposition from local residents who are reluctant to share their neighbourhood or street with the newly arrived and less known ‘other.’ The local councils, being the planning authority that grants or refuses such applications, are caught in the middle of these disputes. Using the lens of international human rights law, the book probes the local councils’ actions and their repercussions to religious freedom. The book has concrete legal and social implications that it is bound to impact not only legal scholarship but also, crucially, policy makers.
