Series: Religion in Politics and Society Today

An indispensable resource for understanding religion's place in American schools and in matters concerning the separation of church and state in the United States.

There are few places where the tension between freedom of religion and separation of church and state is more salient than in America’s public schools. This book serves as a point of reference for many of the most important instances of this tension, including the court cases, laws and legal documents, policies, and principles involved.

Approximately 50 reference entries are included, covering topics such as the American Civil Liberties Union, school dress code, and the Scopes Trial. The entries provide cross references and suggestions for further reading, and the volume closes with an annotated bibliography.
