The Power Worshippers: Inside the Dangerous Rise of Religious Nationalism. By Katherine Stewart
Stewart’s text is part of a growing cottage industry of books studying Christian nationalism. Known for her liberal examination of Christian Right politics, Stewart clearly reveals the interlocking of various Christian Right organizations and political initiatives. She illustrates that these entwined organizations are not just mobilizing against abortion or gay marriages, but intend to establish a theocracy rooted in their religious beliefs. This…
Homes Lost in Conflict: Reframing the Familiar into New Sites of Memory and Identity on a Divided Island
This article draws on the contents of the Turkish Cypriot Museum of Barbarism and a Greek Cypriot elementary level schoolbook to show how the image of the home, both personal and collective, can be used as an evocative framework for commemorating the conflict on Cyprus. The inherent familiarity of this image, its deep connection to our identities and its ability to evoke feelings of nostalgia and grief, hope and pain, make it a powerful trope aro…
Breaking White Supremacy: Martin Luther King Jr. and the Black Social Gospel. By Gary Dorrien
Gary Dorrien, in over five hundred pages, shows how the black Social Gospel movement emerged from the Protestant Social Gospel, undergirded the most successful civil rights movement in US history, and cleared the ground for its successor, black liberation theology. Dorrien’s project is a daunting one, and his overall narrative provides many valuable insights. At the same time, his text is a mishmash of intellectual history, political struggles, a…
God and the Illegal Alien: United States Immigration Law and a Theology of Politics. By Robert W. Heimburger
Heimburger’s text is both timely and curious. Migration policies are on the front line of today’s public policy discussions. His engagement of these policies through a theology of politics, though, is a complicated interweaving of arguments from common law, philosophy, scriptural exegesis, and the history of U.S. immigration practices. Through Edward Coke, Heimburger illustrates how notions of “the alien” evolve into an entity “suspicious” (p. 36…
Britain and the Cyprus Crisis of 1974: Conflict, Colonialism and the Politics of Remembrance in Greek Cypriot Society
This book examines the ideological and socio-political discourses shaping the remembrance and representation of Britain and the Cyprus conflict of 1974 within Greek Cypriot society. By combining the official with the popular and drawing on an extensive range of oral history interviews, this monograph shows that a suspicion born out of Britain’s long (neo-)colonial connection to Cyprus has come to frame the image and understanding of British actio…
Justice and Peace in a Renewed Caribbean: Contemporary Catholic Reflections
In 1970, Pope Paul VI in Octogesima Adveniens called upon Catholic bishops and theologians to rethink Catholic social teaching from within the context of their particular regions and cultures. Without a doubt, many educated readers are already aware of such efforts from US and Latin American bishops. The merit of this volume edited by Anna Kasafi Perkins, Donald Chambers, and Jacqueline Porter, if nothing else, reveals to a broader audience the l…

While authors such as Michael Perry challenge liberal thinkers such as Bruce Ackerman and John Rawls to move beyond their neutral rendering of political discourse in order to foster an ecumenical politics between secular and spiritual perspectives, Fred Frohock contends that the public discourse of liberal theory c…

A half century ago, Louis Hartz articulated how extensively U.S. political culture was steeped in Lockian individualism, a contention subsequently echoed, in a more critical vein, by the seminal studies of Robert Bellah and Robert Putnam.

Mestizo Democracy: The Politics of Crossing Borders (Rio Grande/Rio Bravo: Borderlands Culture and Traditions, 8)
Mestizo is a term from the Mexican sociopolitical experience. It means "mixture" and implies a particular kind of mixture that has resulted in a blend of indigenous, African, and Spanish genes and cultures in Latin America. This mixture is not a "melting pot" experience, where all eventually become assimilated; rather, it is a mixture in which the influences of the different cultures remain identifiable but not static. They all evolve through int…
Reconciling cultural diversity with a democratic community: Mestizajeas opposed to the usual suspects
A fascinating development within the liberal‐communitarian debate is how to deal with cultural diversity in increasingly heterogeneous democracies. Particularly noteworthy are Will Kymlicka's recasting of liberalism to deal with cultural minorities, especially the indigenous peoples of Canada and Charles Taylor's and Michael Walzer's articulation of a ‘deep diversity’ with regard to the federal relationship of Quebec to Canada as a whole. Both ap…

Voegelin, Heidegger, and Arendt: Two's a company, three's a crowd
Hannah Arendt's political theory seemingly lends itself to both a “premodern” coupling with Eric Voegelin and a “postmodern” coupling with Martin Heidegger. Closer comparison between all three thinkers reveal not only that neither coupling is cogent, but that all three thinkers provide essential dimensions for a political theory which moves beyond such distinctions
