What are the challenges of negotiating religious tolerance in today’s Europe? Pver the past decade, religion and religious individuals have become increasingly framed as both an internal and external security threat to European states. This edited collection of essays examines the changing politics and geopolitics of religious freedom by looking to how understandings of religious freedom and “tolerance” touch down in specific places and specific practices across Europe, bringing together theoretical and philosophical reflection with ethnographic analysis of contexts ranging from Belgium, Denmark, France and Italy, to the UK and Turkey. The seminar will present the main finding of the volume and discuss the challenges of concepyualizing question of tolerance from a multi-disciplinary and multi-sited perspective.

You are cordially invited to the presentation and discussion of the edited volume “Spaces and Tolerance”: Changing Geographies and Philosophies of Religion in Today’s Europe, edited by prof. Luiza Bialasiewicz (University of Amsterdam) and dr. Valentina Gentile (Luiss Guido Carli University), published by Routledge.

International Research Workshop
The aim of the Workshop – organized by Valentina Gentile Assistant Professor Luiss in Political Philosophy and co-sponsored by Luiss Department of Political Science – is to explore the link between Transitional Justice and Democracy on practical, moral and normative grounds.

Introduction and Welcome Remarks
Andrea Prencipe Rector Luiss

Confirmed Speakers
Emanuela Ceva Geneva University – Negative moral emotions and the transformation of relationships dynamics in processes of transitional justice
Darrel Moellendorf University of Frankfurt – Public Reason, Reconciliation, and Hope
Colleen Murphy University of Illinois, College of Law – Transitional Justice and the Crisis of Democracy
Valentina Gentile and Megan Foster Luiss University – Towards a Minimal Conception of Transitional Justice

The UN Secretary General defined transitional justice as “the full range of processes and mechanisms associated with a society’s attempts to come to terms with a legacy of large-scale past abuses, in order to ensure accountability, serve justice and achieve reconciliation”. In conflict and post-conflict societies the process of coming to terms with the past and fostering an ethical community is a vital step in the path towards a (re)building stable social order. The philosophical discussion on transitional justice explores this process and questions which methods and mechanisms are most appropriate, justified or morally correct. Despite the relatively recent origin of the philosophical debate on transitional justice an impressive body of literature has grown up around the topic.
