The challenge of pluralism : church and state in five democracies

Monsma, Stephen V. 1936- (Author). Soper, J. Christopher. (Added Author).

Summary: Now in a thoroughly revised and updated edition, this essential text offers a rigorous, systematic comparison of church-state relations in the United States, Australia, the Netherlands, Germany, and England. As successful and stable political democracies, these five countries share a commitment to protecting the religious rights of their citizens. Yet as the book demonstrates, each has taken substantially different approaches to resolving basic church-state questions. Stephen V. Monsma and J. ChristopherSoper examine the historical roots of those differences and explain how each state addresses.
