Religion within the Limits of Democracy. Some Models for Southeast Europe
William Sweet
; St Francis Xavier University, Antigonish, NS, Canada
Sažetak
In this paper, I identify some examples of cultural clash that involve religion, review some proposed solutions to such clashes, and discuss whether religion in any sense can be part of that solution. I also provide some models of religion within the limits of democracy – models which, I suggest, are relevant to the democracies in Southeast Europe. In presenting these models, I claim that a fruitful approach is found in the recent work of the Canadian philosopher, Charles Taylor.
