| Summary: | In the introduction to this valuable anthology, editors Jason Dittmer and Tristan Sturm note that academic geopolitics has been uninterested in religion until quite recently. That is remarkable, given the crucial role of religion in world events and the discourse of global threat and battle among some prominent religious groups in the United States and abroad. Dittmer and Sturm, therefore, have done an important service in compiling this collection of thoughtful essays that join geopolitics to religious studies., This collection, which brings together a variety of views on the influence of evangelicalism on U.S. history and policy, will be an important sourcebook. It is therefore important to note that Dittmer and Sturm's introduction is in need of some comment. |
