In his insightful and sharply argued book 'Germany as a Multireligious State', the renowned jurist and constitutional lawyer Hans Markus Heimann outlines the challenges that Germany will face in the future as a multireligious state. To what extent should the state intervene in the practice of religion? Should circumcision or the burqa be banned? Is the state-collected church tax still justifiable when, in ten years, it is expected that half of the population will be neither Catholic nor Protestant? Headscarf or crucifix - the question of whether religious symbols should be used in schools is just one of many that arise in the immigration country of Germany today. Hans Markus Heimann not only demonstrates how pressing the relationship between religion and state in Germany already is, but he also develops concrete proposals.
