Biography

- Katja Richters, University of Erfurt, Germany
"In summary, Stoeckl’s work is a good... introduction to the ROC’s present views on human rights. It is also a reminder that the contemporary ‘return’ of religion to the public sphere is not merely about Islam’s influence or its ‘incongruity’ with democracy and Western values — particular forms of Christianity also have their say in that debate. The book is also the beginning of a more in-depth analysis of various phases and cases of the ROC’s reorientation regarding human rights issues. It is desirable that this analysis continues."
- Teuvo Laitila, University of Eastern Finland, Finland, in Journal of Contemporary Religion
