Reviews
Religion, Secularism, and Constitutional Democracy collects essays of considerable intellectual depth. They critically confront the contemporary resurgence of 'political theology' with theoretical and philosophical sophistication, while nevertheless exhibiting an admirable commitment to respect and tolerance of religious observance and plurality. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of religion and politics today. -- John P. McCormick, University of Chicago The question of the proper role of religion in a secular state, once thought settled, has re-emerged as a major challenge to contemporary democracies. The essays in this superb volume address the many aspects of this question with depth and clarity, connecting normative, historical and institutional analysis in an exemplary way. Taken together, the contributions not only represent the state of the art in this field of research; rather, they take it to a new level of refinement. -- Rainer Forst, Goethe University Frankfurt
