Vallier on "Liberal Politics and Public Reason"

Go here for a really interesting podcast about Prof. Kevin Vallier (Philosophy, Bowling Green) and his new book, "Liberal Politics and Public Reason:  Beyond Separation."  Here's part of the promo:

In Liberal Politics and Public Faith: Beyond Separation (Routledge, 2014), Kevin Vallier develops a novel view of the role of religious conviction and reasoning in liberal democracy. On his view, religious citizens will rarely need to constrain the role that their religious convictions play in their public activities. However, Vallier also contends that public officials and institutions cannot determine public policy solely on the basis of religious reasons.
