The author's philosophy dialogic politics celebrates pluralism and suggests that religious institutions be construed as mediating structures functioning as buffers between individual citizens in search of existential meaning and cultural identity and the impersonal state, which tends to gravitate toward instrumental objectives. The study offers a fresh perspective on the complex relations between political attitudes and religious convictions. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
