Contemporary liberal democracy faces a crisis driven by contentious pluralism and the rise of conflicting worldviews, exacerbated by diminishing faith in reason and ineffective public discourse. Brendan Sweetman highlights the distinct role of secularism and critiques recent liberal political theories' solutions. He proposes a reimagined relationship between religion, secularism, and politics, advocating for inclusivity of all worldviews within the state. Engaging with influential thinkers, Sweetman offers a novel perspective aimed at preserving a just and equitable society.
