Description
How much religion can the secular state tolerate? And how much democracy can religion tolerate? Encounters between politics and religion carry a high potential for conflict. How can we handle this? The internationally renowned ethicist and philosopher Otfried Höffe explores these questions in depth in his essay, referring to ideas from antiquity to modernity as he does so. His knowledgeable and fascinating remarks are more relevant than ever in a time in which more and more political conflicts around the world are religiously charged.
