Abstrak	This article pursues an immanent critique of a scholarly movement and mood that I call the new genealogy of religious freedom and sketches an alternative proposal. The new geneal ogy of religious freedom claims that religious freedom is incoherent, systemically biased, oppressive, ideological and necessarily so. Its critique deploys a methodology inherited from Nietzsche and targets a vision of religious freedom associated with foundationalists like Kant and Rawls. This article calls both the methodology and the vision into question. The version of genealogy that this movement promotes proves self-destructive and incoher ent, veering toward nihilism and unable to account for its own status as critique. Its attack on foundationalist religious freedom is effective, but it presupposes and targets concep tions of freedom, neutrality, and power that we need not endorse. For foundationalists and genealogists alike, these assumptions define religious freedom. This article rejects those assumptions and that vision of religious freedom. It sketches a pragmatist, dialectical vision of religious freedom rooted in alternate conceptions of power, freedom, and neutrality and a corresponding strategy for legally defining religion, inheriting the strengths of genealogy and foundationalism while avoiding their weaknesses.
