God at the Grass Roots, 1996: The Christian Right in the American Elections


Add your own review!

Overview

God at the Grass Roots, 1996 is composed of entirely new and original essays that analyze the impact of the Christian Right in the 1996 national, state, and local elections. The nation's leading scholars of religion and politics identify and illuminate numerous trends that have dramatically evolved since the landmark elections of 1994. More than simply a revised version of the popular God at the Grass Roots, this fundamentally new edition examines the Christian Right's nationwide influence, and the essays arrive at starkly different conclusions about America's most organized and observed political interest group. This text will complement all courses on parties and elections, and religion and politics.

Table of Contents

Reviews

God at the Grassroots is both helpful and timely. This book is valuable as a collection of well-researched vignettes, and also well-written and insightful.--Rober D. Wodberry Journal For The Scientific Study Of Religion


Rozell and Wilcox have provided a excellent set of case studies that demonstrate both the power and the limitations of religious conservatism in American politics. The main strength of the book is its detailed insider's view of state politics.--Jelen, Ted G. Perspective On Political Science, Winter 99, Vol. 28, No.1


All readers will find much originality and value in the systematic analysis of the often-contrasting views of Reed and Robertson. The major strength of the book is the finely detailed analysis of these two goals on the two chapters analyzing the coalition's 'dreams' off restoration and recognition.--Stuart A. Lilie
