Choosing the Article 9/30: I want to work on Religion and business

I want to work on this article because as a Business major it is helpful to know and understand religious laws. This relates to Global Issues because as people migrate all over the world they may move to an area with different rules on their religion. These rules may apply to certain traditions they do during the work day. It is important to figure out what rules in business there are for different religions in different countries. I plan to focus my research on the business law of religion around the world.

Religion and business have throughout history interacted in ways that relate to and affected one another, as well as influenced sociocultural evolution, political geographies, and labour laws.
