The state is legally required to be neutral towards religion, but
in many countries it is increasingly anything but. This book
conducts a comparative legal analysis of the church-state
relationship within and between western countries - including the
USA, France and Israel - that are key players in international and
domestic dynamics in which religion and religious conflict take
centre stage. It analyses how government accommodates diversity,
how policies of multiculturalism and pluralism translate into
legislation, the extent to which they address matters of religion
and belief and what pattern of related issues then come before the
courts. Finally, it considers how civil society and democracy in
general can maintain a balance between the interests of those of
different religions and beliefs and those of none. In this
illuminating study, Kerry O'Halloran shows how the relationship
between religion and government affects civil society and the
functioning of democracy in North America and Europe.
