Conscience and the Burden Inquiry—What and Why Should be Investigated in Exemption Cases? - a new publication by Wojciech Ciszewski

Conscience and the Burden Inquiry—What and Why Should be Investigated in Exemption Cases? - a new publication by Wojciech Ciszewski

The article focuses on a crucial segment of a discussion regarding the legitimacy of conscientious exemptions, namely the burden inquiry. I argue that the main justifications advanced for the incommensurable religious costs account and the subjective religious costs account do not stand up to critical scrutiny, and that the objective religious costs account is the most plausible position in this debate.
