Dialogue: a Journal of Mormon Thought Is Published Quarterly by the Dia- Logue Foundation DIALOGUEa journal of mormon thought is an independent quarterly established to express Mormon culture and to examine the relevance of religion to secular life.

Mauss Almost two decades have elapsed since I published The Angel and the Beehive: The Mormon Struggle with Assimilation (Urbana: Univer- sity of Illinois Press, 1994). My book began by acknowledging and illustrating the “Americanization” thesis advanced by others— namely that the LDS Church and religion had spent the first half of the twentieth century in a deliberate policy of assimilation with American society and was thus following the time-honored trajec- tory traced by such early scholars as Ernst Troeltsch and Max Weber—from a peculiar and disreputable sect toward a respectable church, increasingly comfortable with the surrounding American culture.1 My main argument, however, was that, since the mid- twentieth century the Church had begun to reverse course and was trying to recover some of the distinctiveness that seemingly had been lost during assimilation. I called this reversal a process of “retrenchment,” and I emphasized that it was a historic anomaly, for conventional wisdom predicted that all new religions would ei- ther be stamped out, be socially and politically quarantined, or eventually be assimilated by the dominant surrounding culture. Once on the path toward assimilation, how and why did the LDS Church resist and then reverse course? I answered that question by drawing on recent sociological theories about new religious movements, arguing that new reli- gions thrive not by full assimilation but by maintaining a degree 1 2 DIALOGUE: AJOURNAL OF MORMON THOUGHT, 44, no. 4 (Winter 2011) of peculiarity and thus tension with the surrounding culture.2 If this tension becomes excessive, the new religion will face a “pre- dicament of disrepute,” as Mormonism did in the nineteenth cen- tury, and its survival will be jeopardized. However, if assimilation proceeds too far, the religion faces a “predicament of respectabil- ity,” where its identity or “brand” does not stand for anything dis- tinctive enough to be attractive—a condition which Mormonism approached by the middle of the twentieth century.3 Growth and prosperity depend upon finding and maintaining an optimum level of tension on a continuum between disrepute and respect- ability.4 This external tension typically arises in part from a certain internal strictness and sacrifice entailed by Church membership, lest members grow complacent in assuming that the promised re- wards can be had without any “cost.” The costs and sacrifices im- posed on members define the boundaries of the LDS way of life and therefore their very identity as “Mormons”—even as these boundaries help also to define the external image of the organiza- tion. The leaders of the LDS Church by midcentury seem intu- itively to have understood all this and to have deliberately begun moving the religious and political culture of the Church back in a sectlike direction, as though to recover some of its lost distinctive- ness and societal tension. I went on to identify various institu- tional expressions through which the resulting LDS retrenchment process had become evident, especially in the realms of formal or- ganization, focus on modern prophets and scriptures, gender and family, missionizing, genealogy and temple worship, and reli- gious scholarship. While The Angel and the Beehive was well received and fairly re- viewed in general, it has been criticized, and properly so, for cer- tain inconsistencies or ambiguities. Any theoretical framework is likely to fit the data only imperfectly. One issue seems to be the nature and scope of the assimilation process that I described. To some of my readers, it has not been clear just what about Mor- monism was being assimilated to what else? I had originally been thinking in terms of Mormon assimilation broadly with American culture, especially American popular culture. Yet some critics seemed to see continuing assimilation, rather than retrenchment, in the Mormon turn toward political conservatism and in the con- stant Church efforts to convince other Christians—especially Mauss: Rethinking Retrenchment 3 Evangelicals—that Mormons are legitimately part of the Christian family.5 Isn’t the Church, in effect, pursuing a policy of assimila- tion with the more conservative denominations? My answer is no. To the extent that Mormonism identifies itself with other rela- tively high-cost religions, it is still resisting and rejecting assim- ilation with the secular culture of the society in general. A derivative ambiguity in my assimilation-versus-retrench- ment argument was my failure to emphasize enough that, while the retrenchment in question, has external implications, it is pri- marily an internal process. Externally, the Church continues to seek respectability and acceptance as one Christian religion among others. Members will recognize, however, that what we tell ourselves internally is that there is only one true church, and ours is it! We continue to cherish our peculiarities as ways of emphasiz- ing that exclusive claim, even as we cringe over what outsiders make of those peculiarities and try to gloss over them whenever we are confronted with them. Another critic has focused on my interpretation of the part played by the “correlation movement” in the retrenchment pro- cess. Whereas I saw correlation as the vehicle by which retrench- ment was implemented, Roger Terry sees correlation as a major feature of assimilation. He argues that, even though the retrench- ment process was focused on resisting the worldly cultural en- croachments of the 1960s and 1970s, the Church actually was qui- etly coming to resemble the rest of the “global economy domi- nated by multinational corporations, organizational values, and professional managers.

    January 11, 2017 Mr. Brian L. Roberts President and CEO Comcast NBCUniversal Comcast Center 1701 JFK Boulevard Philadelphia, PA 19103 Dear Mr. Roberts: A few hours ago I receive a very disheartening telephone call. We had purchased 54 time slots with Comcast in four Utah markets to air our new 30: second commercial “Help Us.” Yesterday, on Tuesday, January 10, 2017 I held a press conference in Salt Lake City to preview the new commercial for the media. At the press conference I announced that the commercial they were seeing would begin airing the very next day, for a week. That did not happen, because late today we were told that Comcast has suddenly refused to run the ad, which had been vetted and approved by your company a week earlier. Having produced political television ads for over 40 years, I am very familiar with time buys and the approval process. So last Tuesday, January, 2017 when your legal department requested a copy of the commercial for approval, we were ready. Our media buying service in Los Angeles, NCC Media asked for a copy of the spot to send to Comcast. We sent it to them and they sent it to Comcast the same day. Two days later, on Thursday, January 5, 2017 we were told that our commercial was approved to go on the air by your legal department, but the spot had been flagged due to an incorrect audio sample rate. The sample rate needed to be changed to 48k, a minor fix which our director did. On Friday, January 6, 2017 the audio corrected spot was sent back to Comcast and we were assured that our commercial was approved and ready to begin airing on Wednesday, January 11, 2017.

    9/23/2015 Rocky Anderson vs. NSA & FBI | 5 Spot | Salt Lake City Weekly Rocky Anderson vs. NSA & FBI Former SLC mayor recently filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government By Jerre Wroble[1] @JerreWroble[2] click to enlarge [3] Rocky Anderson When former Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson reactivated his law license, it appears he also reactivated his activism. Long a civil-liberties defender, he decided to call out the federal government after reports surfaced in 2013 that the NSA and FBI allegedly conducted illegal surveillance on Salt Lake- area residents before and during the 2002 Winter Games. He recently filed a lawsuit (that two City Weekly staff joined) seeking damages from the U.S. government for unlawful invasions of privacy. Anderson explained the purpose of his lawsuit below: The Winter Olympics were so 13 years ago. Why sue now? Apparently, no one outside the NSA and FBI knew of the blanket surveillance over Salt Lake City during the 2002 Olympics until The Wall Street Journal broke the story in an article on Aug. 20, 2013. The information would probably never have been known to the public if one or more courageous sources hadn't provided the information. The 9/11 attacks took place less than six months prior to the 2002 Winter Olympics. Wasn't safety a huge issue, serving to justify such drastic measures? As mayor during the Olympics, my greatest concern, even before 9/11, was safety.

  • 1 Written Testimony of the Native American Rights Fund Regarding H.B. 1369 House Committee on Veterans and Government Affairs Ja
    Written Testimony of the Native American Rights Fund Regarding H.B. 1369 House Committee on Veterans and Government Affairs January 27, 2017 Introduction The Native American Rights Fund (NARF) very much appreciates the opportunity to comment on H.B. 1369. Founded in 1970, NARF is the oldest and largest nonprofit law firm dedicated to asserting and defending the rights of Indian tribes, organizations and individuals nationwide. Along with the Dickson Law Office and Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP, NARF represents a group of Native American voters who have challenged North Dakota’s voter ID requirements in federal court under the U.S. Constitution, the Voting Rights Act and the North Dakota Constitution and obtained a preliminary injunction relating to the 2016 election. We are deeply concerned that North Dakota’s voter ID laws disproportionately impact and unlawfully abridge the voting rights of Native Americans in North Dakota. While H.B. 1369 appears to make some improvements, it still does not provide any fail-safe mechanisms for Native Americans and other voters who cannot to satisfy North Dakota’s strict voter ID requirements, which are likely the most restrictive in the United States. The lack of fail-safe mechanisms was one of the main reasons the federal court granted a preliminary injunction relating to the 2016 election. Before 2013, North Dakota was a voter-friendly state that allowed its citizens to vote based on a poll worker vouching for their identity, or by the voter executing an affidavit under penalty of perjury declaring they are an eligible voter. H.B. 1332 and 1333 mandated that voters present an ID from a narrow list of acceptable IDs and eliminated the voucher and affidavit fail- safe mechanisms that previously existed.

Our State is home to the “Mighty Five” National Parks, and we are internationally recognized for our hiking, biking, skiing, and many other outdoor opportunities. Utahns enjoy a resilient and diverse economy supported by infrastructure from roads and trails to water treatment plants and airports that represents a commitment going back to the State’s pioneer roots. If you live in Utah, you know this is a special place. While we should celebrate the success of our rapidly developing Wasatch Front, we Utahns recognize the importance of our rural communities to the continued success and prosperity of our great State. These rural communities need access to reliable clean water, functional roads, transit, flood control, and other necessities of life. Meanwhile, the more densely populated Wasatch Front is concerned about planning for the future and keeping Utah an affordable, accessible, and beautiful place to live. The Utah Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) has produced this Infrastructure Report Card for the benefit of all Utahns.
