Modern statesmen and political theorists have long struggled to design institutions that will simultaneously respect individual freedom of religion, nurture religion's capacity to be a force for civic good and human rights, and tame religion's illiberal tendencies.

They explore the institutional challenges posed by, and possible responses to, the fraught relationship between religion and rights in the world today.
