  • On the Institutional Foundations of the American Civil Religion

    On the Institutional Foundations of the American Civil Religion

    religions Article Why the Covenant Worked: On the Institutional Foundations of the American Civil Religion John W. Compton Department of Political Science, Chapman University, Orange, CA 92866, USA; [email protected] Received: 2 May 2019; Accepted: 25 May 2019; Published: 29 May 2019 Abstract: Scholars of American civil religion (ACR) have paid insufficient attention to the micro-level processes through which civil religious ideas have historically influenced beliefs and behavior. We know little about what makes such appeals meaningful to average Americans (assuming they are meaningful); nor do we know much about the mechanisms through which abstract religious themes and imagery come to be associated with specific policy aims, or what Robert Bellah called “national goals.” This article argues that a renewed focus on the relationship between civil religion and organized religion can help fill this gap in the literature. More specifically, I draw attention to three mainline Protestant institutions that for much of the twentieth-century were instrumental both in cultivating respect for the national civic faith and in connecting its abstract ideals to concrete reform programs: namely, the clergy, the state and local church councils, and the policy-oriented departments of the National Council of Churches (NCC). Finally, I argue that a fresh look at the relationship between civil religion and “church religion” sheds new light on the (arguably) diminished role of civil religious appeals in the present. If, as Bellah claimed in his later writings, ACR appeals have lost much of their power to motivate support for shared national goals, it is at least in part because the formal religious networks through which they once were transmitted and interpreted have largely collapsed.

I want to express special thanks to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) of NUS for awarding me a research scholarship for four consecutive years. FASS also funded my four months’ fieldwork in the U.S. in 2005, as well as an earlier conference trip to the University of California, Davis. The Png Poh Seng Prize (Best Student in History) it awarded me in the 2003- 2004 academic year has been a constant reminder that this thesis should be written to a high standard. My supervisor Professor Ian Lewis Gordon, former head of History Department of NUS and Dr. Stephen Lee Keck, my former supervisor, who left NUS to teach at the American University of Sharjah in 2006, played critical roles in the development of this thesis. Professor Gordon painstakingly went through the whole draft and provided invaluable suggestions and corrections. His attention to details in editing my writing has left indelible marks on my mind. I am truly grateful to him for the time and energy he has put in my thesis.

Economics has not been emancipated from philosophy for very long. Adam Smith, author of Inquiry Into the Nature and Cause of� Wealth of Nations (1776) and The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759), was both a political economist and a moral philosopher. Even after 1800 when the field was called political economy, political economists remained professionally concerned about the moral sentiments of men. Jeremy Bentham, the Mills, and the founders of the American Economic Association--to cite but a few--were economist-philosophers or economist­ theologians.

KYLE GRAHAM The Refugee Jurist and American Law Schools, 1933-1941 The position of younger men, just about to enter upon their careeras academic men is almost more distressing than that of the fully arrived professor. The latter can find a home else- where. The former have the roots cut out from under them.1 - Yale Law School Professor Edwin Borchard, 1933 With patience younger men can fit into the American scheme 2 of things. Older men will find difficulty. - Borchard, 1938 In 1933, Adolf Hitler and his National Socialist party assumed control of the German government. Over the next decade, Nazi- orchestrated persecution would force hundreds of academics, includ- ing several dozen law teachers, from their positions at European uni- versities. 3 Many displaced jurists sought to continue their careers in the United States. They thought a spirit of scientific brotherhood and respect for Continental scholarship would impel U.S. law schools to grant them refuge and succor.
