The Americanization of Religious Minorities
Confronting the Constitutional Order
by Eric Michael Mazur
"What happens when a minority religious group's beliefs run counter to the laws and principles of the American constitution? How do Americans reconcile the conflicting demands of church and state?
In The Americanization of Religious Minorities, Eric Michael Mazur recounts the experiences of Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, and Native Americans as cases in which minority religious groups seek to practice their faith in a constitutional order that recognizes a higher authority different from, and sometimes incompatible with, their own."--BOOK JACKET.
"The Americanization of Religious Minorities will be of interest to students and scholars of American religion, American politics, and sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
