Anfang der 80er Jahre wurden die Vereinigten Staaten durch das massive politische Auftreten von religiös-konservativen Christen aufgeschreckt. Diese Christian Right war mit dem Anspruch angetreten, die Interessen einer »Moral Majority« (dt. moralischen Mehrheit) zu vertreten. Es gelang ihren Organisationen innerhalb weniger Jahre Millionen von bisher unpolitischen, religiösen Amerikanern zu mobilisieren und dadurch gewaltige gesellschaftliche und politische Veränderungen auszulösen.Martin Sterr analysiert die Wandlungsprozesse des Phänomens Christian Right vor dem politischen Hintergrund der 80er und 90er Jahre. Die Analyse der Strukturen, Aktionen und Strategien zeigt, daß die Christian Right eine überaus moderne Bewegung darstellt. Nach schmerzlichen Rückschlägen Mitte der 80er und Anfang der 90er Jahre gelingt es, die Interessen ihrer religiösen Basis in einem modernen, pluralistischen Umfeld zu etablieren. Heutzutage gelingt es der Christian Right, den von außen und innen an sie herangetragenen Herausforderungen durch Transformationen zu begegnen. Die Wandlungsfähigkeit, die Popularität ihrer Themen sowie ihre wachsende Anhängerschaft sind Trümpfe, die es der CR auch in Zukunft erlauben werden, eine aktive Rolle in der politischen Landschaft der USA zu spielen.

Working as Ombudsperson for Human Rights in the State of Bosnia and Herzegovina in Sarajevo, Gret Haller became aware that the reactions of the United States and Europe are hardly ever the same, be it in Bosnia or in other parts of the world, with the current crisis in the Middle East offering just another example: in international negotiations it is always the United States that refuses to give up sovereignty. While Europeans view sharing as an instrument to guarantee freedom and peace, Washington sees it as a threat to its independence and power. Instead, the U.S. government relies on unsanctioned campaigns against rogue states. The author is not optimistic that the recent shift in the political climate in the U.S. will change this deeply ingrained attitude. In her book, based on in-depth and first-hand experience in the transatlantic political arena, the author concludes that any fresh approach towards addressing these differences will first require an understanding of their roots in history. In Europe, the Peace of Westphalia of 1648 began a development that led to the emergence of a nation-state that ultimately came to be based on shared sovereignty. In the New World, however, the dominance of society over the state marked a break with that European tradition.

Since the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, the United States and Western Europe's paths to modernity have diverged sharply with respect to religion. In short, Americans have maintained much friendlier ties with traditional forms of religion than their European counterparts. What explains this transatlantic religious divide? Accessing the topic though nineteenth and early twentieth-century European commentary on the United States, Thomas Albert Howard argues that an 'Atlantic gap' in religious matters has deep and complex historical roots, and enduringly informs some strands of European disapprobation of the United States. While exploring in the first chapters 'Old World' disquiet toward the young republic's religious dynamics, the book turns in the final chapters and focuses on more constructive European assessments of the United States. Acknowledging the importance of Alexis de Tocqueville for the topic, Howard argues that a widespread overreliance on Tocqueville as interpreter of America has had a tendency to overshadow other noteworthy European voices. Two underappreciated figures here receive due attention: the Protestant Swiss-German church historian, Philip Schaff, and the French Catholic philosopher, Jacques Maritain. While the transatlantic religious divide has received commentary from journalists and sociologists in recent decades, this is the first major work of cultural and intellectual history devoted to the subject.

Volume 2 of Ideological Battlegrounds – Constructions of Us and Them Before and After 9/11 continues and complements the discussion of the event undertaken in the first part of the two-volume publication (2014). This time, the focus is put on language and discourse. The contributions here volume explore the construction of “Us” and “Them” in a variety of pre- and post-9/11 texts, mainly from the perspectives of (political) discourse analysis and translation studies. The book shows how language in use reflects and retells the tragic event and how it (re-)constructs its actors, bringing us closer to understanding the roots and long-term consequences of 9/11. The volume is by no means exhaustive of the topic, but demonstrates its complexity and continuing relevance for today’s world.
