Итог:American Religion is Mark Chaves's description of the major trends in American religious life from primarily the early 1970s to the first decade of the 2000s. Drawing on General Social Survey and National Congregations Study data, Chaves clearly and concisely highlights the stability and changes in Americans' religious affiliation, beliefs, and participation, congregations' size, diversity, leadership, and use of technology, and the relationship between religion and politics over the past several decades. Chaves overtly states that his goal is description, not explanation or theoretical interpretation; he offers very few reasons for why the trends look the way they do.
