Σύνοψη: | As religion has become more visible in public life, with closer relations of co-operation with government as well as a force in some political campaigns, its place in public life has become more contested. Fudged compromises of the past are giving way to a desire for clear lines and moral principles.

Fundamentally, it asks what it means to be liberal in a world in which religious diversity is becoming more present and more problematic Religion in a liberal state / Raymond Plant -- The European Court of Human Rights and religious neutrality / Ian Leigh -- Religion and sexual orientation : conflict or cohesion? / Maleiha Malik -- Liberal religion and illiberal secularism / Linda Woodhead -- Moderate secularism in liberal societies? / Derek McGhee -- Excluded, included or foundational? religions in liberal democratic states / Veit Bader -- Justificatory secularism / Cécile Laborde -- What lacks is feeling : Hume versus Kant and Habermas / John Milbank -- Arguing out of bounds : Christian eloquence and the end of Johannine liberalism / John Perry |
