Professor Randall Hansen, University of Toronto, organized this debate. He became interested in the controversy for two reasons. First, as he witnessed the events unfolding in late 2005 and early 2006 it seemed to him that the whole crisis raised basic questions about multiculturalism, religious accommodation, and integration. Second, the crisis coincided with an email debate that he was having with members of the political science department at the University of Toronto (including Joseph Carens) about how liberals should react to an event, organized here, entitled “Israeli Apartheid week”. He is the author of Citizenship and Immigration in Postwar Britain (OUP, 2000). His website is www.randallhansen.ca.
