About this book
In Religion and Radical Pluralism: Engaging Rawls and Gandhi, Jeff Shawn Jose confronts the question of the role of religion in the public sphere through the writings of John Rawls and Mahatma Gandhi. Jose explores Rawls's and Gandhi's contrasting and complementary views through the framework of three objectionsāintegrity, fairness, and divisivenessāagainst a view of public reason that restricts the expression of religious arguments in the public sphere. The book introduces Gandhi's ideas into Rawls's political liberal framework and brings Rawls's ideas into the Gandhian religious framework, a critical and creative encounter where the relationship between Gandhian and Rawlsian approaches becomes a fertile ground for reciprocal, dialectical reflections. Religion and Radical Pluralism teases out and evaluates the tensions and prospects in Rawls's and Gandhi's views on the role of religion in the public sphere, thus offering a pertinent contribution to the study of radical pluralism in contemporary societies.
