Schweber argues that justifications based on particular religious doctrines inaccessible to nonadherents cannot be a proper basis for government actions that affect everyone. He develops a model of justification intended to guide citizens in a liberal democracy through the work of creating policies that satisfy their responsibilities to one another.
