Om Constitutionalism, Democracy and Religious Freedom
In both Europe and the USA it can be argued that the associational and institutional dimensions of the right to freedom of religion or belief are increasingly coming under pressure. This book demonstrates why a more classical understanding of the idea of a liberal democracy can allow for greater respect for the right to freedom of religion or belief. Drawing on theoretical developments in the field of transnational constitutionalism, Hans-Martien ten Napel argues that redirecting liberal democracy toward the notion of limited, constitutional government, with a considerable degree of autonomy for civil society organizations would allow greater religious pluralism.
