Michael Perry, a leading constitutional theorist, here continues his inquiry into the role of morality in American public life that began with his critically acclaimed Morality, Politics, and Law. In this sequel, he addresses the proper relation of moral convictions to the politics of a morally pluralistic society, focusing on religious morality. Perry devises a theory of `ecumenical politics' in which moral values can be brought to bear in a productive way on political deliberation. `There is no question in my mind that it will have a large, diverse, and eager audience.'
