Disappearing God Gap?: Religion in the 2008 Presidential Election
ISBN: 9780199734702 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. After the reelection of George W. Bush in 2004, the "God Gap" became a hotly debated political issue. Religious voters were seen as the key to Bush's victory, and Democrats began scrambling to reach out to them. Four years later, however, with the economy in a tailspin on election day, religion barely seemed to register on people's radar screens. In this book, a team of well-regarded scholars digs deeper to examine the role religion played in the 2008 campaign. They take a long view, placing the election in historical context and looking at the campaign as a whole, from the primaries through...

Pastors and Public Life: The Changing Face of American Protestant Clergy
ISBN: 9780190455491 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. America's clergy are not just religious leaders. Their influence extends far beyond church doors. Houses of worship stand at the center of American civic life-one of the few spheres in which relatively diverse individuals gather together regularly. And the moral authority granted to pastors means that they are uniquely positioned to play a role in public debates. Based on data gathered through national surveys of clergy across four mainline Protestant (the Disciples of Christ; the Presbyterian Church, USA; the Reformed Church in America; and the United Methodist Church) and three...

Pews, Prayers, and Participation offers a fresh approach to key questions about what role religion plays in fostering civic responsibility in contemporary American society. Written by five prominent scholars of religion and politics, led by Calvin College's Corwin Smidt, the book brilliantly articulates how religion shapes participation in a range of civic activities--from behaviors (such as membership...

ISBN: 9781442217300 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. American Evangelicals Today assesses the contemporary social, religious, and political characteristics of evangelical Protestants today, and it does so in light of (1) whether these characteristics are similar to, or different from, the corresponding characteristics of adherents of other major faith traditions in American religious life, and (2) the extent which these particular characteristics among evangelicals may have changed over the past four decades. In addition, it analyzes the extent which evangelicals are divided today, and it does so within the framework of four potential factors...

Religion as Social Capital: Producing the Common Good
ISBN: 9780918954855 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 273 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. While Robert Putnam'sBowling Alone(2000) highlighted the notion of volunteerism, little attention has been paid to religion's role in generating social capital - an ironic omission since religion constitutes the most common form of voluntary association in America today. Featuring essays by prominent social scientists, this is the first book-length systematic examination of the relationship between religion and social capital and what effects religious social capital has on democratic life in the United States.

Rich, complex, and relevant, this book will be of interest to all who wonder whether religion's role in public life actually makes a difference in the world." Laura R.

Oxford Handbook of Religion and American Politics
ISBN: 9780195326529 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 600 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Religion is, and has always been, a powerful force in American politics. Over the past three decades, the study of religion and politics has gone from being ignored by the scholarly community to being a major focus of research. Yet, because this important research is not easily accessible to nonspecialists, much of the analysis of religion's role in the political arena that we read in the media is greatly oversimplified. This Handbook seeks to bridge that gap by examining the considerable research that has been conducted to this point and assessing what has been learned, what remains...

Sojourners in the Wilderness: The Christian Right in Comparative Perspective
ISBN: 9780847686452 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. While the Christian Right has been the subject of a good deal of scholarly analysis, it has not been adequately studied within a comparative context--across time, across different institutional systems, or across different religious communities. In Sojourners in the Wilderness, a host of distinguished scholars examine these dimensions of the Christian Right. The contributors analyze the Christian Right historically--what is its relationship today with earlier manifestations? How have its organizational structures and strategies changed over time?; Sociologically--what are the current...
