Description
As recent elections in Iran and Iraq have shown, the increasing diversity of religious practices around the world may redefine democracy as we know it--leaving many of us to wonder just how compatible religion and democracy really are. The Pluralist Paradigm explores this difficult question with essays from a variety of disciplines, including theology, philosophy, political science, sociology, and ethics. It will be an ideal reference for anyone concerned with fostering tolerance in a progressively global society.
