Praise for After Pluralism:
“After Pluralism brings us astonishing new insight into the   underpinnings, uses, and limits of religious pluralism in many   settings — from US and Canadian law courts, to the sacred lands of   indigenous peoples, the American theatre, Cairo television, German   prisons, and more. Its closely reasoned and beautifully illustrated   essays make us rethink the ways in which religions are and can be   lived in the world. A deeply important book for our time. ” —  Natalie  Zemon Davis, University of Toronto
