Jeffrey Stout on Religion, Pluralism, and Democracy
If you are in or near South Bend, Indiana, consider attending Thursday's lecture (at 4 p.m., in the Law School's courtroom) by Princeton's Jeffrey Stout. Here's the summary:
Stout’s lecture will concern a topic he addressed in his recently published book “Democracy and Tradition,” a philosophical, theological, political and legal examination of religious discourse in a democracy. The book was praised by former Notre Dame theologian Stanley Hauerwas, now a professor in the Duke Divinity School, who wrote that “with a clarity that can only be gained through a charitable reading of those with whom he disagrees, Stout inaugurates a fresh conversation between advocates of democracy and those who hold substantive Christian convictions.”
