Jakobsen & Pellegrini, eds., Secularisms Duke U. Press, 2008

 

 

Is secularism the modernizing, progressive answer to stuck-in-the-past religion? Janet Jakobsen and Ann Pellegrini call into question the secularism-religion binary; they contend that a kind of Christian secularism dominates US politics. They also see gender and sexuality as central to the development of both the neoliberal agenda and what they call Barack Obama's Neo-New Deal.
