One Nation Under God by Kevin M. Kruse
How Corporate America Invented Christian America
This book delves into the historical intertwining of religion and politics in the United States, particularly focusing on the mid-20th century. It explores how corporate leaders and religious figures collaborated to promote a vision of America as a Christian nation, using religious rhetoric to counteract the New Deal and communism. Through this alliance, the book illustrates how religious language and symbols were integrated into national identity, influencing political discourse and public policy, and reshaping the American political landscape in ways that continue to resonate today.
