520 1 $a"In Liberty of Conscience, the eminent political philosopher Martha Nussbaum offers a sweeping historical study of the American tradition of religious freedom, weaving together political history, philosophy, and key constitutional cases into a rich chronicle of an ideal of equality that has always been central to our history. Nussbaum shows how the founders of the future United States overcame religious intolerance in favor of a political order dedicated to fair treatment for people's deeply held conscientious beliefs. It granted equal liberty of conscience to all and took a firm stand against religious establishment. This respect for religious difference, Nussbaum writes, formed our democracy and made equality possible."--BOOK JACKET.
