Few agree, however, about what they mean by either ?religion? or ?freedom.? Rather than resolve these debates, Finbarr Curtis argues that there is no such thing as religious freedom. Lacking any consistent content, religious freedom is a shifting and malleable rhetoric employed for a variety of purposes. While Americans often think of freedom as the right to be left alone, the free exercise of religion works to produce, challenge, distribute, and regulate different forms of social power. The book traces shifts in the notion of religious freedom in America from The Second Great Awakening, to the fiction of Louisa May Alcott and the films of D.W. Griffith, through William Jennings Bryan and the Scopes Trial, and up to debates over the Tea Party to illuminate how Protestants have imagined individual and national forms of identity. A chapter on Al Smith considers how the first Catholic presidential nominee of a major party challenged Protestant views about the separation of church and state. Moving later in the twentieth century, the book analyzes Malcolm X?s more sweeping rejection of Christian freedom in favor of radical forms of revolutionary change. The final chapters examine how contemporary controversies over intelligent design and the claims of corporations to exercise religion are at the forefront of efforts to shift regulatory power away from the state and toward private institutions like families, churches, and corporations. The volume argues that religious freedom is produced within competing visions of governance in a self-governing nation. 410 0$aNorth American religions. 606 $aBranding (Marketing)$zUnited States 606 $aSelling 606 $aLiberty 606 $aReligion and sociology$zUnited States 606 $aFreedom of religion$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xChurch history 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBranding (Marketing) 615 0$aSelling. 615 0$aLiberty. 615 0$aReligion and sociology 615 0$aFreedom of religion 676 $a323.4420973 700 $aCurtis$b Finbarr$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01032057 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480493003321 996 $aThe Production of American Religious Freedom$92449700 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01251nam a22003011i 4500 001 991001273159707536 005 20030124123200.0 008 021206s1978 it a||||||||||||||||ita 035 $ab12124242-39ule_inst 035 $aARCHE-021404$9ExL 040 $aDip.to Filologia Ling. e Lett.$bita$cA.t.i.
