Abstract

David Golemboski’s Religious Pluralism and Political Stability: Obligations in Agreement investigates conflicts between citizens’ religious and political-legal obligations in contemporary pluralistic societies by analyzing the relevant literature and court cases from the perspective of political liberalism. As such conflicts generate an unstable political system, which is not sustainable, the question is of great importance. In this sense, political “stability” becomes the central focus of the book, which renders the book a significant source in the political theory scholarship. Despite occasionally reductionist and Eurocentric ideas stemming from its implicit claim of universality, the book offers a comprehensive and convincing analysis of the political-religious conflicts in the U.S. context. In this sense, as a substantial contribution to the relevant scholarship, it provides an important source for those interested in the intersections of religion, politics, law and political theory.

Özet

David Golemboski'nin Religious Pluralism and Political Stability: Obligations in Agreement (Dini Çoğulculuk ve Siyasi İstikrar: Anlaşmadaki Yükümlülükler) adlı eseri, siyasi liberalizm perspektifinden ilgili literatürü ve mahkeme kararlarını analiz ederek, çağdaş çoğulcu toplumlarda vatandaşların dini ve siyasi-yasal yükümlülükleri arasındaki çatışmaları incelemektedir. Bu tür çatışmalar sürdürülebilir olmayan istikrarsız bir siyasi sistem yaratacağından, bu konu büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu anlamda, siyasi “istikrar” kitabın odak noktası haline gelmekte ve bu da kitabı siyaset teorisi alanındaki akademik çalışmalar için önemli bir kaynak haline getirmektedir. Her ne kadar kitabın örtük evrensellik iddiasından kaynaklanan indirgemeci ve Avrupa merkezli fikirler içerse de kitap, ABD bağlamındaki siyasi-dini çatışmaları kapsamlı ve ikna edici bir şekilde analiz etmektedir. Bu anlamda, ilgili akademik çalışmalara önemli bir katkı sağlayan kitap, din, siyaset, hukuk ve siyaset teorisinin kesişim noktalarıyla ilgilenenler için önemli bir kaynak teşkil etmektedir.
