Continuities and Impact in Post-Communist Poland and Hungary (Peter Lang Verlag, 2014, with Gwenyth Jones) and Warsaw. The Jewish Metropolis. Essays in Honor of the 75th Birthday of Professor Antony Polonsky (Brill Academic Publishers, 2015, with Glenn Dynner). Cécile Laborde is Professor of Political Theory and the Director of the Religion and Political Theory (RAPT) Centre at University College London. She has published widely on theories of law and the state, global justice, republicanism and secularism. Her last book is Critical Republicanism: The Hijab Controversy and Political Philosophy.Lois Lee is Research Associate at the Institute of Advanced Studies, UCL (University College London). She has published widely on nonreligion, secularism and religion and is the author of Recognizing the Non-religious: Reimagining the Secular (Oxford University Press, 2015), co-editor of Secularity and Non-Religion (Routledge, 2013) and of special issues for the Journal of Contemporary Religion (2012) and Religion (2014).

Recent centuries have been the theatre of a ‘war of the gods’ pitting religion against religion and also against quasi-religious secular values. In an eirenic spirit, the contributors to this remarkable volume discuss the compromises and accommodations that prevent moral conflict turning into physical violence. David d'Avray, Professor of History, University College London:This is an important and impressive collection. Eschewing simplistic answers, it opens a series of windows into the negotiation of religion in European societies, past and present. It asks how religion has been identified, accommodated, navigated around, or engaged with, how the terms of such interactions have been moulded and remoulded in the process, and how numerous settlements have emerged, persisted, and disintegrated as negotiations have continued. The subject matter is diverse, complex, and contested, but the excellent team of writers assembled here provide a feast of lucid descriptions and compelling analyses. Mike Higton, Professor of Theology and Ministry, Durham University.A deeply impressive interdisciplinary collection which addresses an issue of overwhelming contemporary significance. This book recognises the persistent importance of religion in modern people’s lives and uses the insights of political theory, law, urban studies and history to understand the ethical and theoretical issues which emerge from attempts to find a satisfying and creative role for different religions within modern multicultural societies. Professor Peter W.D. Mack, University of Warwick.
