Reviews
In this outstanding collection, two leading scholars of religion and politics in America's past have brought together an all-star roster of historians to discuss religion and politics in our present. Brimming with expertise and insights, Faith in the New Millennium is scholarship-in-action at its very finest. --Kevin M. Kruse, author of One Nation Under God: How Corporate America Invented Christian America
[B]oth scholarly and popular audiences will benefit from the ways in which Faith in the New Millennium demonstrates the complexities and contingencies of religion in public life. In contrast to sensationalized accounts of contemporary secularization, the book proves that religion remains an evolving rather than eroding force in twenty-first century American politics. For those seeking a deep understanding of the causes and consequences of recent trends and transformations in the roles of religion in politics, Faith in the New Millennium will prove an accessible and incisive resource. --Brantley W. Gasaway, Journal of Church and State This very fine collection highlights the need for even more scholarship on the future of religion and politics-or even, for that matter, its present. --Reading Religion In this outstanding collection, two leading scholars of religion and politics in America's past have brought together an all-star roster of historians to discuss religion and politics in our present.

Kruse, author of One Nation Under God: How Corporate America Invented Christian America If such a volume is to succeed, it must be anchored by strong essays by established scholars, the academic equivalent of ringers. The editors, Darren Dochuk and Matthew Avery Sutton, more than amply fill that role, complemented by such luminaries as Edward J. Blum and Jennifer Graber. -The Christian Century Faith in the New Millennium provides a nuanced, comprehensive, and effective overview of the continuities and discontinuities in religion's role in American politics. --Sociology of Religion This very fine collection highlights the need for even more scholarship on the future of religion and politics-or even, for that matter, its present. --Reading Religion In this outstanding collection, two leading scholars of religion and politics in America's past have brought together an all-star roster of historians to discuss religion and politics in our present.
