Part 3 Communalism in the law: children's religious freedom, devout parents and the State; sacred spaces and planning law - property rights and the regulation of religious activities in the United States; knowledge, negotiation and NAGPRA - re-conceptualizing repatriation discourse(s); the employment of religious adherents by religious organizations.
