Brownstein Book on Establishment Clause Published
The anthology, The Establishment of Religion Clause: Its Constitutional History and the Contemporary Debate, edited by Professor of Law Alan Brownstein, has been published by Prometheus Books. The book is organized around three central areas. First, several articles provide divergent accounts of the history of the Establishment Clause from colonial America to the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment. Second, various perspectives are presented on government endorsement of religious messages, typically through state-sponsored religious displays or state-directed prayer. Third, a range of viewpoints addresses the issue of government funding of religious institutions providing educational or social services.
