Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy Editors: Ted Jelen and Mark Rozell The Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy series serves a growing niche in the discipline of political science. This subfield has proliferated rapidly during the past two decades, and has generated an enormous amount of scholarly studies and journalistic coverage. Five years ago, the journal Politics and Religion was created; in addition, works relating to religion and politics have been the subject of many articles in more general academic journals. The number of books and monographs on religion and politics has increased tremendously. In the past, many social scientists dismissed religion as a key variable in politics and government. Today, religion is widely acknowledged to be a key variable in candidate nominations, platforms, and elections; it is recognized as a major influence on domestic and foreign policies. This series casts a broad net over the subfield, and provide opportunities for scholars at all levels to publish their works with Palgrave, a highly prestigious and respected press. We hope to publish monographs in all subfields of political science: American politics (behavior and institutions), public law (especially constitutional law), comparative politics, international relations, and political theory (as opposed to ethics or theology). • • • • • •
