Intolerant Religion in a Tolerant-Liberal Democracy
Hart Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-84946-605-9 (ISBN)
The main arguments of the book are, first, that as a general rule illiberal intolerance should not be tolerated; secondly, that there are meaningful, unique links between religion and intolerance, and between holding religious beliefs and holding intolerant views (and ultimately acting upon these views); and thirdly, that the religiosity of a legal claim is normally a reason, although not necessarily a prevailing one, not to accept that claim.
Yossi Nehushtan is Senior Lecturer at the School of Law, Keele University, and Co-Director of the MA in Human Rights, Globalization and Justice.
