Spiritual Warfare

Published in 1989, Spiritual Warfare is Sara Diamond's penetrating exposé of the Religious Right and its growing influence over U.S. politics. With investigative precision, Diamond uncovers the networks of propagandists, fundraisers, and ideologues who have shaped some of the most regressive domestic and foreign policies of the era.

Far from a grassroots moral movement, the Religious Right emerges in these pages as a coordinated political force?deeply embedded in media, government, and international affairs. Diamond reveals how this alliance of theocratic ambition and political strategy has helped normalize authoritarianism, anti-feminism, and militarism under the guise of ?family values? and freedom.

A foundational text in the study of religion and power in America, Spiritual Warfare remains a vital read for anyone seeking to understand the intersection of faith, politics, and empire.
