Bob Fu is brave and thoughtful. His personal experience of the cruelty and ideology of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has shaped his outlook and helped him to develop ideas about what a reformed and open China--worthy of its great people--might look like. The pluralistic architecture of Baorong Duoyuan would embed diversity, protect identity, and guarantee so many of the human rights so frequently denied by the CCP--including religious freedom and political dissent. The Politics of Inclusive Pluralism is a much needed roadmap for the future and few are better equipped to chart the way than Bob Fu. --David Alton, Independent Crossbench Member of the House of Lords Bob Fu's book is the most thoughtful exposition I have seen of the challenges China faces to implement polis as a religious freedom that does justice to both believers and secularists alike. I like the underlying supposition of his book that China will eventually throw off the shackles of totalitarian communist control and move into an epoch of genuine religious freedom. This is a very soulful and excellent constitutional study that deserves to be read by both government officials and advocates of religious freedom all over the world. --David Aikman, author of Jesus in Beijing Bob Fu has been known as a person of action in rescuing persecuted individuals of religious and ethnic minorities in China. This book establishes him as a profound thinker as well. . . . This is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about religious freedom and church-state relations, or is interested in the future reconstruction of post-communist China. --Fenggang Yang, author of Religion in China: Survival and Revival under Communist Rule
