Djupe and Gilbert investigate the political influence of church and
how membership in organized religious bodies shapes the political
life of members. Djupe and Gilbert's goal in this inquiry is to
re-center scholarly attention on the voluntary association as an
essential element of American civic and political life. They
develop a theoretical framework that captures the multifaceted
elements of church life that affect individual political attitudes
and actions. Political information from clergy, small groups, and
social networks flows plentifully in churches, but individuals
process that information differently depending on their motivations
related to their status in the church. Articulating a more fully
specified model of how associations expose individuals to political
information and norms will help us understand the political
opinions and behavior of citizens and the contribution of that
pattern to sustaining democracy.
