Christianity and American Democracy
The Alexis de Tocqueville Lectures on American Politics
Hugh Heclo
Christianity, not religion in general, has been important for American democracy. With this bold thesis, Hugh Heclo offers a panoramic view of how Christianity and democracy have shaped each other. Responding to his challenging argument, Mary Jo Bane, Michael Kazin, and Alan Wolfe criticize, qualify, and amend it. The result is a lively debate about a bedrock tension in American public life.
