• Summary:"The role of the state in resolving social tensions rooted in competing "sets of ultimate commitments" among citizens, and the role of the law in resolving such moral conflicts between the citizen and the state. How, and why, differences ought to be accommodated in a free and democratic society. The issues explored are becoming intensely pertinent as Canada's religious diversity increases, the state expands into areas traditionally seen as private, and state actors seek to promote certain 'values'."-- Provided by publisher.
