在《美国的教会，1776-2005》一书中，罗杰·芬克和罗德尼·斯塔克再次彻底改变了我们对美国宗教的看法。扩展的论点，即国家的宗教环境作为一个自由市场经济的行为，这广泛修订和扩大版提供了新的研究，统计数据和故事，文件增加参与宗教团体在二十一世纪。除了彻底覆盖““主线””宗教团体，新的章节图表显着的发展和增长的非裔美国人教会从十九世纪初向前。芬克和斯塔克展示了这些教会如何像其他“暴发户教派"一样公开争夺信徒，并展示了美国的宗教自由规范如何允许非裔美国人教会在几乎没有外部干预的情况下构建组织避风港。本版还包括新的部分，对种族宗教社区的最近移民-故事，呼应那些告诉种族宗教飞地在十九世纪。汇集及时的新信息和证据，这本挑衅性的书坚持，比以往任何时候都对美国宗教机构的既定观念进行重大重新评估。以生动的散文写，它将激起教会和学术界的辩论，以及在美国宗教史感兴趣的外行。
In The Churching of America, 1776-2005 Roger Finke and Rodney Stark once again revolutionize the way we think about religion in America. Extending the argument that the nation's religious environment acts as a free market economy, this extensively revised and expanded edition offers new research, statistics, and stories that document increased participation in religious groups in the twenty-first century. Adding to the thorough coverage of ""mainline"" religious groups, new chapters chart the remarkable development and growth of African American churches from the early nineteenth century forward. Finke and Stark show how, like other ""upstart sects,"" these churches openly competed for adherents and demonstrate how American norms of religious freedom allowed African American churches to construct organizational havens with little outside intervention. This edition also includes new sections on the ethnic religious communities of recent immigrants - stories that echo those told of ethnic religious enclaves in the nineteenth century. Bringing together timely new information and evidence, this provocative book insists, more than ever, on a major reevaluation of established ideas about American religious institutions. Written with lively prose, it will stir debate within church and academic communities, as well as among laypersons interested in the history of religion in America.
