ISBN: 9780691096513 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Many scholars and citizens alike have counted on civic groups to create broad ties that bind society. Some hope that faith-based civic groups will spread their reach as government retreats. Yet few studies ask how, if at all, civic groups reach out to their wider community. Can religious groups--long central in civic America--create broad, empowering social ties in an unequal, diverse society?

The Search for Political Community: American Activists Reinventing Commitment
ISBN: 9780521483438 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

The Civic Life of American Religion
ISBN: 9780804757966 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

Arguing that religious groups experience many of the same constraints and opportunities as...
