Religious Liberty : Overviews and History Paperback / softback
by Douglas Laycock
Part of the Emory University Studies in Law and Religion series
Paperback / softback
Description
The Collected Works on Religious Liberty comprehensively collects the scholarship, advocacy, and explanatory writings of leading scholar and lawyer Douglas Laycock, illuminating every major religious liberty issue from both theoretical and practical perspectives. / This first volume gives the big picture of religious liberty in the United States.
It fits a vast range of disparate disputes into a coherent pattern, from public school prayers to private school vouchers to regulation of churches and believers.
Laycock clearly and carefully explains what the law is and argues for what the law should be.
He also reviews the history of Western religious liberty from the American founding to Protestant-Catholic conflict in the nineteenth century, using this history to cast light on the meaning of our constitutional guarantees. / Collected Works on Religious Liberty is unique in the depth and range of its coverage.
Laycock helpfully includes both scholarly articles and key legal documents, and unlike many legal scholars, explains them clearly and succinctly.
All the while, he maintains a centrist perspective, presenting all sides -- believers and nonbelievers alike -- fairly.
