Course Description

According to Thomas Jefferson, the U.S. Constitution created a wall of separation between church and state, religion and society. Yet, religion has played a significant political role in U.S. history. It has helped communities bond together, has given a rationale for public engagement, has provided the motivation for social reform, and has been a source of controversy and culture wars. This course will explore the relationship between religion and public life in America. It will note its benefits and challenges to the commonwealth, and how religion remains a driving force for both social change and cultural identity in America.
