How can a nation protect fundamental rights and freedoms, including religious freedom, within a liberal democratic context? The objective of the essays presentedin this volume is to provide an overview of the principal modelsused to protect fundamental freedoms, and especially the right to freedom of belief,expression and practice of ones religion, in major liberal democratic systems. A range of viewpoints are presented in a comparative way in orderto obtain insights, reveal strengths, weaknesses and differences of opinion, and tolearn from the lessons of others, how religion might be and has been protected.

At the heart of this judiciously edited collection of essays is the contentious debate in Australia about whether to adopt a national bill of rights. ... Many readers will be surprised to learn that Australia lacks a national bill of rights; it is the only modern Western nation without one. ... Paul Babie, Neville Rochow and their colleagues in the new Research Unit for the Study of Law, Religion and Society at the University of Adelaide have brought together a strong cast of Australian and international scholars to put the Australian issues in sharp comparative relief.'
