(Ebook) Orthodox Christians and the Rights Revolution in America. by Roeber, A. G. ISBN 9781531505042, 153150504X

A distinctive and unrivaled examination of North American Eastern Orthodox Christians and their encounter with the rights revolution in a pluralistic American Society. From the civil rights movement in the 1950s to the "culture wars" of North America, commentators have identified the partisans bent on pursuing different "rights" claims. When religious identity surfaces as a key determinant in how the pursuit of rights occurs, both "the religious right" and "liberal" believers remain the focus of how each contributes to making rights demands. How Orthodox Christians in North America have navigated the "rights revolution," however, remains largely unknown. From the disagreements over the rights of the First Peoples of Alaska to arguments about the rights of transgender persons, Orthodox Christians have engaged an anglo-American legal and constitutional rights tradition. But they see rights claims through the lens of an inherited focus on the dignity of the human person. In a pluralistic society and culture, Orthodox Christians, both converts and those with family roots in Orthodox countries, share with non-Orthodox fellow citizens the challenge of reconciling conflicting rights claims. Those claims do pit "religious liberty" rights claims against perceived dangers from outside the Orthodox Church. But internal disagreements about the rights of clergy and people within the Church accompany the Orthodox Christian engagement with debates over gender, sex, and marriage as well as expanding political, legal, and human rights claims. Despite their small numbers, North American Orthodox remain highly visible and their struggles influential among the more than 280 million Orthodox world-wide. Orthodox Christians and the Rights Revolution in America offers an historical analysis of this unfolding story.
