520 |a The article interrogates the assumptions and arguments proposed by Elizabeth Shakman Hurd in Beyond Religious Freedom and her contribution in the present issue of the JRPP. Hurd destabilizes and historicizes the universal claims of the discourse of religious freedom, rendering it an instrument of domination and manipulation. The article critiques this approach for its power reductionism toward religion as a category. Engaging Hurd's heuristic formulations of 'governed', 'expert' and 'lived' religion, as well as Hurd's 'two faces of faith' framework, the article offers counter-arguments developed from the perspective of religious peacebuilding and broader constructive approaches to change processes and conflict transformation. It is argued that Hurd's analysis of the instrumentalization of religion in 'expert' and 'governed' policy domains lacks a recognition of the hermeneutical contestation extant in religious traditions and motivations, and the internal pluralities of religion that this contestation involves. Hurd's critique offers a prism through which to elucidate our examination of some discursive traps underpinning the language of the promotion of religious freedom. However, the practices, actors, and meanings understood in the praxis of interfaith peacebuilding stand as tangible examples of constructive religious agency that challenge the assumptions underpinning Hurd's project as a whole.
