Описание: This book explores Puritanism and its continuing influence on U.S. and military law in the Global War on Terror, exploring connections between Puritanism and notions of responsibility in relation to military crimes, superstitious practices within the military, and urges for revenge. Engaging with the work of figures such as Durkheim, Fauconnet and Weber, it draws on primary data gathered through participation and observation at the U.S. Army courts-martial following events at Abu Ghraib, Operation Iron Triangle, the Baghdad canal killings and a war crimes case in Afghanistan, to show how Puritan cultural habits color and shape both American military actions and the ways in which these actions are perceived by the American public. A theoretically sophisticated examination of the cultural tendencies that shape military conduct and justice in the context of a contemporary global conflict, The Puritan Culture of America’s Military will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in social theory and sociology, cultural studies, politics and international relations and military studies.

Описание:

In
the seventeenth-century English Atlantic, religious beliefs and practices
played a central role in creating racial identity. English Protestantism
provided a vocabulary and structure to describe and maintain boundaries between
insider and outsider. In this path-breaking study, Heather Miyano
Kopelson peels back the layers of
conflicting definitions of bodies and competing practices of faith in the
puritan Atlantic, demonstrating how the categories of "white,"
"black," and "Indian" developed alongside religious boundaries between
"Christian" and "heathen" and between "Catholic" and "Protestant."

Faithful Bodies focuses on three
communities of Protestant dissent in the Atlantic World: Bermuda,
Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. In this "puritan Atlantic," religion
determined insider and outsider status: at times Africans and Natives could
belong as long as they embraced the Protestant faith, while Irish Catholics and
English Quakers remained suspect. Colonists'
interactions with indigenous peoples of the Americas and with West Central
Africans shaped their understandings of human difference and its acceptable
boundaries. Prayer, religious instruction, sexual behavior, and
other public and private acts became markers of whether or not blacks and
Indians were sinning Christians or godless heathens. As slavery became
law, transgressing people of color counted less and less as sinners in English
puritans' eyes, even as some of them made Christianity an integral part of
their communities. As Kopelson shows, this transformation proceeded
unevenly but inexorably during the long seventeenth century.

Описание: This book suggests an interpretation of the characteristic qualities of Scottish and American literatures. Considering the self-consciously different stance which sets them apart from English literature, the author develops the constituents of the `puritan-provincial vision`: a particular way of looking at life and man`s relationship to what lies beyond himself.
