How the Christian Right Slayed a Monster and Reframed the Religion Clauses in Bremerton
Abortion and the Law in America
Mary Ziegler’s newest book, Abortion and the Law in America: Roe v. Wade to the Present, has been released at a time when there is a shared understanding that abortion politics and law stand at a pivotal crossroads. While Democrats again control the White House and congress after four years of Trump, the former president and the Republican Party successfully used their time in power to securely place the U.S. Supreme Court under conservative cont…
The Pro-Life Pregnancy Help Movement
Striving to Rollback or Protect Roe
Abortion’s centrality to the Christian Right, together with that movement’s importance to Republican Party politics, as well as the policy realities of abortion, have all combined to make regulating abortion a fixture within U.S. state politics for decades. While the levels and forms of state activity have varied since the 1980s, the Trump presidency has produced strategic changes in the content and perceived importance of abortion policy. Notabl…
Higher Law
The allure of law schools as transformative institutions in the United States prompted Christian Right leaders to invest in legal education in the 1990s and early 2000s. The aspiration was to control the training of lawyers in order to challenge the secular legal monopoly on law, policy, and culture. In this article, we examine three leading Christian conservative law schools and one training program dedicated to transforming the law. We ask how …
Playing for the Rules
This article catalogues and analyzes the litigating behavior of four of the leading New Christian Right Public Interest Law Firms (NCR PILFs). Consistent with the finding from judicial politics that all PILFs seek first and foremost to have policy influence, we find that most of the litigation these PILFs invest in is either explicitly or implicitly religious or mission driven. However, we also observe a trend of increased participation in secula…
Abortion Politics, Mass Media, and Social Movements in America
Lawyers for God and Neighbor
Drawing on movement framing, collective identity, and mobilization scholarship, this article examines the emergence and potential effects of framing “law as a calling” for the Christian Lawyering community. The article finds that the term should have strong resonance and salience in the broader Christian community. It also finds that because of its interpretive malleability, “law as a calling” has been discussed and actualized in three related, b…
"Tort Tales" and TV Judges
This article joins the debate about the popular pervasiveness of antitort and antilitigation attitudes by examining whether, and to what extent, antitort or antilitigation sentiment is present in the narratives about law offered by reality-based television judge shows. Given the persistent debate about tort reform and scholars' recognition of the role played in this debate by simplified narratives about the legal system, we analyze whether realit…
Sustaining the State
This article investigates how activists involved in both sides of the street politics of abortion simultaneously create, are constrained by, and use law when recounting a period of conflict that resulted in litigation. The activists‐turned‐litigants' construction of legality is explored by identifying and analyzing patterns of inclusion, absence, amendment, and type of law (i.e., state or extrastate) in and across the stories they tell. It is fou…
