Secularism or Democracy?: Associational Governance of Religious Diversity

0 - Default Title
Description
Policies dealing with religious diversity in liberal democratic states--as well as the established institutions that enforce those policies--are increasingly under pressure. Politics and political theory are caught in a trap between the fully secularized state and neo-corporate regimes of selective cooperation between states and organized religion. This volume proposes an original, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary approach to problems of governing religious diversity--combining moral and political philosophy, constitutional law, history, sociology, and religious anthropology. Drawing on such diverse scholarship, "Secularism or Democracy?" proposes an associational governance--a moderately libertarian, flexible variety of democratic institutional pluralism--as the plausible third way to overcome the inherent deficiencies of the predominant models.
