Peritz shows how these two complex yet distinct and sometimes contradictory images have influenced government policy and continue to inspire public debate over political economy in America.

Sommario/riassunto

The last half century has seen both attempts to demythologize the idea of God into purely secular forces and the resurgence of the language of 'God' as indispensable to otherwise secular philosophers for describing experience. This volume asks whether 'piety' might be a sort of irreducible human problem.
