George W. Bush's religiosity has invited much analysis and
controversy about the impact of religion on government. This
collection of leading scholars' essays first examines the impact of
various religions voting groups on the 2004 presidential campaign,
and then reviews and assesses the impact of religion on the
policies of the Bush presidency.
During the past decade, the growing intensity of fundamentalist
movements has ignited increasingly heated debates and controversies
over the role of religion in modern societies. Until 9/11, most
debates in the modern United States over the intersection of
religion, politics, and society had focused on the rise and
influence of the fundamentalist Protestant-led Christian Right. But
after that tragic day, fundamentalist religious beliefs commanded
even more attention, though this time Islamic. "Fundamentalism,
Politics, and the Law" describes and analyzes the role of religious
fundamentalist beliefs in the modern political world. Comprised of
studies by leading scholars in law, political science, sociology
and religion, this volume is organized around two major topics: the
first examines the rise and the enduring influence of the Christian
Right in U.S. politics and policy. The second focuses on the clash
between fundamentalist practices in various religious traditions
and societal norms and the law.
George W. Bush has invited more analysis and controversy over the
impact of religion on his presidency than perhaps any chief
executive of the modern era. Opinion on Bush's religiosity is
intensely divisive, with conservative evangelicals seeing him as a
man of deep faith and principles and at the same time many
progressives seeing the president as almost dangerously fanatical.
This volume is a scholarly review and analysis of the role of
religion in the Bush presidency. It is divided into two sections of
essays by leading scholars: The first examines the impact of
various religious voting groups to the 2004 presidential campaign.
The second reviews and assesses the impact of religion on the
policies of the George W. Bush presidency.
This volume opens a new avenue toward understanding the politics
and policies of many U.S. presidents. For years, leading scholars
have largely ignored the religious factor in their studies of
presidents. Yet, as the essays in this book reveal, religion has

history. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, these essays reveal
the deeply religious side to such presidents as Truman, Eisenhower,
and Reagan, among others.
