“…He writes, "The inclusivist ideal is more attractive than its rival because, being less restrictive, it allows all citizens to express themselves and their deepest values more fully in the political sphere and is apt to mitigate the problem of alienation from the political." 27 Vallier is another strong defender of the integrity objection. He writes, "One traditional reason to endorse liberalism is that it preserves the integrity of all citizens.…”

Can religious arguments provide a reasonable, justified basis for restrictive (coercive) public policies regarding numerous ethically and politically controversial medical interventions, such as research with human embryos, pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, or using artificial wombs? With Rawls, we answer negatively. Liberally reasonable policies must address these controversial technologies on the basis of public reasons accessible to all, even if not fully agreeable by all. Further, public democratic deliberation requires participants to construct these policies as citizens who are agnostic with respect to the truth of all comprehensive doctrines, whether secular or religious. The goal of these deliberations is practical, namely, to identify reasonable policy options that reflect fair terms of cooperation in a liberal, pluralistic society. Further, religious advocates may participate in formal policymaking processes as reasonable liberal citizens. Finally, public reason evolves through the deliberative process and all the novel technological challenges medicine generates for bioethics and related public policies.

“…Schemes are figures of speech that deal with word order while tropes are figures of speech that deal with the meaning of words. The use of figures of speech with persuasive intentions has been extensively studied by other scholars (see Quinn, 2010) and it is beyond the scope of this book to provide a detailed discussion of their uses within advergames. However, metaphor and metonymy are the most-recurrent tropes in advertising.…”

Since the term advergame was f irst coined and def ined, a growing number of scholars have turned their attention toward advergames and have proposed several definitions applicable to the different purposes of their studies. None of the definitions previously proposed, however, include all of the elements that are necessary to def ine this practice precisely and to differentiate it from other marketing strategies. In this chapter, I undertake a critical review of previous definitions proposed by scholars for the term 'advergames' and I propose a new def inition for this concept.
