Secularization, Religiosity, And The United States Constitution, Christopher L. Eisgruber

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

This article draws upon leading works in the sociology of religion to assess what I shall call "the secularization claim" regarding the United States. It endeavors, in particular to clarify the possible meanings of "secularization,"and then to use these conceptual refinements to examine what sort of evidence exists that the United States has been secularized. Though it is not possible to falsify every version of the secularization claim, there is little evidence to support it, especially in its most prominent and politically relevant variations. The article then goes on to offer a preliminary analysis of to what extent, if any, …

U. S. Immigration In A Global Context: Past, Present, And Future, Jeffrey S. Passel, Michael Fix

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

Through the use of their own empirical studies, the authors

address three themes: 1) immigration in the global context; 2) the

scale and characteristics of immigration to the United States; and

3) the. expected future impact of immigration to the United States.

The authors focus on U.S. immigration by giving an empirical

comparative history which suggests that, while the sheer number of

immigrants to the United States has grown, the share of foreignborn

people in the U.S. population is well below historic highs.

immigrants to the United States in terms of …

Global Migration - Immigration - Multiethnicity: Challenges To The Concept Of The Nation-State, Jost Delbruck

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

Professor Delbriick begins his article by briefly discussing the

history and development of the nation-state, and then examines how

changes in the political and social environment, often international

and cross-cultural in nature, have altered the traditional notion of

on that of the traditional closed, self-centered, and self-reliant

nation-state. Professor Delbriick demands that his concept of an

"Open Republic" first be grounded in the form of a republican

State-a constitutional government involving the democratic

participation of all …
