Place and Innovation in Popular Music: The Bebop Revolution in Jazz
This paper explores the relationship between place and processes of innovation in popular music, focusing on the example of the bebop style of jazz. Bebop emerged during the 1940s both as a reaction against older jazz styles and as an expression of artistic innovation within a community of younger jazz musicians. The process of its creation and early development was situated in a set of "nested'' locales centered in New York City. This analysis e…
The Effects of Geographical Variability on Protestant Church Membership Trends, 1980-1990
Differences in the recent membership trends of liberal and conservative Protestant denominations have been a major focus of research on church growth and decline. This study examines the role of local contextual factors on these membership trends through their interaction with the detailed geographical distributions of eight large denominations, including four conservative groups and four more liberal groups. Results indicate that during the 1980…

Regional Contrasts within Black Protestantism: A Research Note
This paper examines North/South contrasts in the determinants of church attendance and the association between attendance and asceticism among black Protestants. The analysis finds that social factors have a larger effect on attendance in the South, religious factors in the North. The association between attendance and ascetic moral values is also weaker in the South than in the North. Both patterns reflect historical regional variations within b…
Regional Contrasts within Black Portestantism: A Research Note
Patterns in the Survival of Catholic National Parishes, 1940-1980
National parishes represent the primary institutional response of the Catholic Church to its ethnic diversity in the United States. The national parish differs from the more common territorial parish in the definition of its membership, which comprises all Catholics in an area sharing a specific ethnic or national background. This study examines patterns in the survival of German, Italian and Polish national parishes between 1940 and 1980. Factor…
Regional Variations in the Determinants of Religious Participation
Toward a Geography of American Civil Religion
The concept of civil religion has been of considerable interest to students of American culture during recent decades. Little attention has been given, however, to regional variations in the practice of American civil religion. The purpose of this study is to explore basic patterns in the popular observance of the Bicentennial, as one possible approach to understanding the geography of American civil religion. The study is based on the register o…
Regional Divergence in Religious Affiliation in the United States
The regional convergence hypothesis asserts that regional differences in the United States have declined over the past century. Convergence has been documented for many demographic and socioeconomic variables; but it is less clear that regional cultural differences have declined. This paper examines the convergence hypothesis through the variable of religious affiliation. Three hypotheses are tested: that regional differences have declined in whi…
Regional Migration and Religious Commitment in the United States
Two conceptual models have been proposed to describe changes in religious commitment among regional migrants. The dislocation model predicts that all migrants undergo a decline in commitment after being uprooted from familiar surroundings; the model asserts that commitment among migrants will rise or fall depending on their new region's norms of religious behavior. This paper tests these models through an examination of patterns of church attenda…
The Dutch Colonial House And the Colonial Revival
The Colonial Revival was a major movement in twentieth-century American domestic architecture. The Dutch Colonial house, one of many Revival styles, provides a useful index of Colonial Revival popularity, which was greatest between 1905 and 1940. This popularity was based upon a nostalgic idealization of the nation's colonial past, and was apparently tied to white Protestant dissatisfaction with urbanizing, industrializing America. The persistenc…
