Teaching the Gettysburg Address
The Address is an icon, and as such has become an essential part of the American political system's religitimization process. Its remarkable effectiveness in this role is largely due to its literary form being borrowed from Biblical covenent renewal ceremonies. But we have paid a high price for this effectiveness. The Address is essentially misleading about the nation's founding and simply wrong about the democratic character of our political ins…
Democratic Dialectics
In the modern, extant world of practical history, the dominant “democratic” tradition splits sharply into three, often hostile strands. These strands are liberal democracy, social revolutionary democracy, and participatory democracy. Especially for analytical purposes, it is important to see these strands as distinct sharing only the vaguest general commitment to government by and for broad reaches of the population (the demos ). However, the thr…
Schematic Politics
Can philosophically inclined political scientists, as well as quantifying behavioralists, use diagrams? Of course ... and have at least since Plato depicted Socrates drawing lines in the sand below the walls of Athens. Nothing will more quickly or comprehensively convey the relationships between the elements within a complex idea than a carefully constructed, skillfully rendered schematic diagram. A few years back, I published a book on American …

The Prophetic President
Presidential leadership is commonly associated with the term "charisma." Some Presidents have it; some do not. But what exactly is charisma? This article clarifies the concept by drawing upon a Biblical paradigm of leadership in which American political culture has been steeped. Presidents, the author contends, are called to be "charismatic heroes" who by their "prophetic" words "congregate" the people as a "covenanted" presence in "history." All…
Teaching the Political Ideas of the Bible
Church and State in America
This article begins with a critique of the orthodox American doctrine calling for the separation of church and state, especially as this doctrine has been formulated by the United States Supreme Court. This doctrine is simplistic, dualistic, and merely jurisdictional; it is also much too narrowly tied to Hobbesian-Lockean liberal prejudices and their asocial vocabularies. The predominant American religious traditions (Protestant, Catholic, and Je…
Liberation Theology
Liberation theology is not a Marxism in Christian disguise. It is the recovery of a biblical radicalism that has been harbored in the Judeo-Christian tradition virtually from its founding. As such, liberation theology is the revitalization of one of the most profound social, political, economic, and religious challenges to established hierarchies that the West has ever known. Liberation theologians turn to modern Marxism chiefly to gain a compreh…
Hebraic-Biblical Political Thinking
This article explores the contribution of the Bible to the ideas by which both philosophers and ordinary persons comprehend their political worlds. The author analyzes three clusters of ideas associated with Hebraic-Biblical thinking: nationalism, centered on the concept of "love" by which a charismatic hero-leader congregates a people into an historical, covenanted community; revolution, centered on the choice with which a prophetic figure chall…
The American Polity
This paper constructs, within the American liberal consensus, a conceptual frame into which the great paradoxes of American politics can be fitted without significant omission or unexplained contradiction. The foundation of the American liberal consensus is seen to be a Protestant-bourgeois individualism divided against itself. This fundamental division issues into conflicting visions of America as a democracy. In national, legitimizing myth, Ame…
