Abstract

One of the most difficult concepts pertaining to religious freedom is proselytism. Because globalization causes more interaction between religious groups, religious beliefs must now compete in the open marketplace of ideas. Increased religious competition often causes resentment and ecumenism gives way to religious balkanization and conflict. The state struggles to balance one community's right to exercise and expand its faith against another's right to be left alone to its own traditions. While inter-religious dialogue is the often-cited remedy, it must be paired with guidelines of prudence and restraint on the part of the proselytizer.
