Modern statesmen and political theorists have long struggled to
design institutions that will simultaneously respect individual
freedom of religion, nurture religion's capacity to be a force for
civic good and human rights, and tame religion's illiberal
tendencies. Moving past the usual focus on personal free expression
of religion, this illuminating book - written by renowned scholars
of law and religion from the United States, England, and Israel -
considers how the institutional design of both religions and
political regimes influences the relationship between religious
practice and activity and human rights. The authors examine how the
organization of religious communities affects human rights, and
investigate the scope of a just state's authority with respect to
organized religion in the name of human rights. They explore the
institutional challenges posed by, and possible responses to, the
fraught relationship between religion and rights in the world
today.
