The Rights Turn in Conservative Christian Politics: How Abortion Transformed the Culture Wars - Cambridge Studies in Social Theory, Religion and Politics
Lewis, Andrew R. (University of Cincinnati)
This book documents a fundamental change in American politics. Rather than conservatives emphasizing morality and liberals emphasizing rights, both now wield rights arguments. Using extensive historical and survey data, Lewis provocatively explains how the prototypical culture war issue - abortion - has motivated the conservative rights turn over the past half-century.
