The Politics of Hate: How the Christian Right Darkened America's Political Soul: Religious Engagement in Democratic Politics

Autor Angelia R. Wilson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 ian 2025
Christian Right organizations have darkened America’s political soul by strategically constructing a theological justification for hate. Angelia Wilson supports this claim in The Politics of Hate by detailing how Christian Right organizations have pushed voters toward polarization and primed religious conservatives to support Donald Trump.

Based on original research, participant observation at events, and data collection, Wilson follows the money to provide a meticulous analysis of how Christian Right political elites operate. She traces the evolutionary development of the Christian Right’s political professionalism and their allegiance to a grand vision that articulates a grammar of war to fulfill their Biblical worldview.

The Politics of Hate demonstrates how Christian Right organizations educate and train networks of soldiers to tactically engage the enemy in local, state, and national legal and political battles. Wilson carefully documents their history of co-belligerency, their strategies of political warfare, and, importantly, the impact of this war that has, over the past fifty years, forever changed American politics.

Recenzii

“How did a leader as deeply secular and irreligious as former President Donald Trump manage to attract passionate support from eight out of ten white evangelicals? And from almost two-thirds of white Catholics as well, despite President Biden’s deep-rooted Catholic faith? Using a variety of methods and evidence, The Politics of Hate provides essential new insights into this phenomenon. Wilson explains why Trump’s heated rhetoric defending traditional values converted the sharply declining share of the American electorate who identify as white Christians to become the devoted base of the Make America Great Again movement.”Pippa Norris, Harvard University
“Most books referring to the Christian Right are written by those far outside of the movement’s core constituency and with little understanding of religion or theology. Not this one. The Politics of Hate is especially valuable now that some of the old-guard groups like the Moral Majority are gone and others, like Focus on the Family, have shifted their attention. Wilson provides the most comprehensive guide to the core groups of the movement that I have ever seen, and her detailed strategies are fascinating, in part because of her personal anecdotes from attending the various events. The Politics of Hate provides a higher-level look at what is going on that is independent of the actions of individual groups.”Clyde Wilcox, Professor of Political Science at Georgetown University, and coauthor of The Interest Group Society, 4th edition
