Abstrak :
The concept of religious freedom is the modern human rights concept, with which the modern world hopes to tackle the phenomenon of religious pluralism, as our modern existence in an electronically shrinking globe comes to be increasingly characterised by this phenomenon. To begin with, the concept of religious freedom, as embodied in Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, seems self-evident in nature. It is the claim of this book, however, that although emblematic on the one hand, the concept is also problematic on the other, and the implications of the concept of religious freedom are far from self-evident, despite the ready acceptance the term receives as embodying a worthwhile goal. This book therefore problematizes the concept along legal, constitutional, ethical and theological lines, and especially from the perspective of religious studies, so that religious freedom in the world could be enlarged in a way which promotes human flourishing.

Malaysia is a common law country, and as such the decisions of its courts have a binding and law-making force. This means that the Malaysian judiciary is highly influential in setting the tenor of governance. In this article I examine and analyze some key decisions that had an influence on divisiveness and dissent in the country. I point out that the courts have been poor in ensuring that the legal system protects the nation from divisive elements, and the legal system does not do enough to guarantee the fundamental rights and democratic principles that were envisioned by the founding fathers for the citizenry. The article closes with an attempt to understand why this is the case.

Penelitian ini membahas mengenai hak kebebasan beragama dan berkepercayaan pada masyarakat penghayat Kepercayaan Sunda Wiwitan. Melalui UU No. 1 Tahun 1965 tentang Pencegahan Penyalahgunaan dan/atau Penodaan Agama negara telah melakukan diskriminasi terhadap penghayat kepercayaan, karena hanya enam agama saja yang diakui oleh negara. Pada saat melakukan observasi di Cigugur, Jawa Barat, ditemukan dampak negatif atas pengaturan tersebut yang dialami oleh para penghayat Kepercayaan Sunda Wiwitan. Mereka kesulitan mengakses hak-hak sipilnya, seperti hak untuk memeluk agama dan melaksanakannya, hak atas pendidikan, hak atas pekerjaan, hak atas pelayanan publik akta perkawinan, akta anak serta identitas hukum berupa KTP , dan hak atas bantuan hukum. Akibatnya timbul konflik vertikal antara penghayat kepercayaan dengan pemerintah serta konflik horizontal antara sesama masyarakat. Penelitian ini juga melihat langkah penyelesaian sengketa yang dipilih oleh penghayat keperacayaan untuk menyelesaian konflik/sengketa yang dialaminya. Maka saran dari penelitian ini adalah, negara tidak perlu membedakan antara pemeluk agama resmi dan penghayat kepercayaan. Hal ini sebagai bentuk kewajiban negara untuk menghormati, memenuhi dan melindungi hak warga negaranya. Tanpa pembedaan maka penghayat Kepercayaan Sunda Wiwitan dapat mengakses hak-hak sipilnya.
