The question of the connection between religion and human rights is a crucial point here. The genealogy of the Human Rights is still a point of controversies in the academic discussion. Nevertheless, there is consensus that the Christian tradition ? especially the doctrine that each human being is an image of God ? played an important role within the emergence of the codification of the Human Rights in the period of enlightenment. It is also obvious that the struggle against the politics of apartheid in South Africa was strongly supported by initiatives of churchy and other religious groups referring to the Human Rights. Christian churches and other religious groups do still play an important role in the post-apartheid South Africa. They have a public voice concerning all the challenges with which the multiethnic and economically still deeply divided South African society is faced with. The reflections on these questions in the collected lectures and essays of this volume derive from an academic discourse between German and South African scholars that took place within the German-South African Year of Science 2012/13. 606 $aHuman rights$xReligious aspects 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aHuman rights$zSouth Africa 615 0$aHuman rights$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aHuman rights 676 $a201/.723 702 $aGra?b$b Wilhelm 702 $aCharbonnier$b Lars 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788829803321 996 $aReligion and human rights$91947145 997 $aUNINA
