This book evaluates the democratic theory of America's Christian
Right (CR). The CR has been examined extensively in academic
literature. However, most analyses focus on its origins, policy
preferences, or successful mobilization. Hudson instead examines
the normative assumptions about governance that inform CR activism.
The CR has its own answers to the core questions asked in
democratic theory, such as "What legitimizes power?" and "What is
the proper relationship between the state and the individual?" The
author outlines ten normative assumptions of the CR and compares
each to its counterpoint in liberal democratic theory. Much of what
the CR believes about democracy comes from the same authors as
modern and postmodern democratic theory but differs in its
interpretation and application. The book describes in detail the
theory of CR and demonstrates how the CR operates from a different
view of governance than is usually associated with the United
States.
