Article on Freedom of Religion in U.S.

I've posted an article on LSN (link also to the right) on "The Permissible Scope of Limitations on Freedom of Religion and Belief in the U.S."  It's part of a set of articles by European and American scholars on the scope of freedom of religion in their respective countries.  My piece is a summary of the free exercise/speech/association issues in the U.S.  The whole symposium, in the latest Emory International Law Review (volume 19), is worth a look for anyone interested in these questions, especially their comparative aspect.  The articles follow a common format, so that each answers the same set of questions for its subject country and each analyzes a common set of hypothetical cases at the end -- all to facilitate comparisons.  A good endeavor led, on the U.S. side, by Jeremy Gunn of the ACLU's Freedom of Religion and Belief project.
