Church-State Constitutional Issues explores the often-debated and
always topical issue of the relationship between church and state
as outlined in the First Amendment. Donald L. Drakeman takes an
interdisciplinary approach to examine the meaning of the
establishment clause, demonstrating how the studies of law,
religion, history, and political science provide insight into this
relationship, which, since the nation's inception, has been
difficult to define. The study first chronicles the Supreme Court's
decision regarding the interpretation of the establishment clause
from the early 19th century to the present. This legal history is
subsequently viewed from a cultural perspective as Drakeman traces
both the background of the First Amendment and how the relationship
of church and state has developed on its journey through the court
system. The volume moves towards further understanding of this
complex issue as it concludes with a new interpretation of the
establishment clause derived from previous information as well as
further legal and political interpretive material.
