Divine Influence: The Christian Right and its Role in American Political Stability

Is American Democracy being reshaped by a singular moral vision?



In Divine Influence, political analyst Neil Jackson provides a deep-dive exploration into the rise of the Christian Right and its profound impact on the United States' domestic stability and global standing. This eBook traces the historical roots of Evangelical mobilization—from the First Great Awakening to the Reagan era—and reveals how a once-spiritual movement became a formidable political machine.

Inside this comprehensive guide, you will discover:

• The Blueprint of Power: How organizations like the Moral Majority and the Christian Coalition forged a strategic alliance with the Republican Party.
• The Economic Mandate: A revealing look at the intersection of faith and "Biblical capitalism," including the movement's influence on tax cuts, deregulation, and global trade policies.
• A Divided Nation: An analysis of how religiously framed "culture wars" have contributed to unprecedented legislative gridlock and political polarization.
• Global Repercussions: Why the shift toward religious nationalism is altering America’s soft power and its diplomatic relations with the rest of the world.

Whether you are a political analyst, a researcher, or a concerned citizen, Divine Influence offers a critical lens through which to view the future of American democracy and the precarious balance between church and state.
