Im Fokus dieser Dissertation steht die sozial-liberale Partei D66 (Demokraten 66) und deren Säkularitätspolitik in den Niederlanden. Die Arbeit nimmt die Partei zum Ausgangspunkt, um politische Kämpfe um konkurrierende Säkularitätsmodelle zu untersuchen. Die Arbeit umfasst erstens eine historische Analyse des säkularitätsbezogenen Wandels in den Niederlanden und zweitens mehrere umfassende Fallstudien zu gegenwärtigen Auseinandersetzungen um Säkularität in unterschiedlichen Settings.:Table of Contents 2
