Book Review: Disfiguring: Art, Architecture, Religion

At root, R. argues that fundamentalism is a species of neopatriarchalism which protests the differentiations of society into particular spheres, each with its own separate ethical norms. R. avoids all simple reductionisms and honors the unique role of religion. Sociologists will find in this volume probably the best systematic and theoretical approach to fundamentalism, with careful attention to its carriers, its ideology, and causes for the mobilization of social protest among its followers. By combining a salvation history with a specific social critique, fundamentalism draws support from sectors of society which do not subscribe to the theological vision. Historians will find here some careful analysis of mistaken views, e.g. the notion of American Protestant fundamentalism as a lower-class rural phenomenon is submitted to a re-analysis of the membership of the leading fundamentalist congregations and their leadership during the 1920s. I know, at present, no other book so theoretically sophisticated and helpful for classifying and studying fundamentalism in comparative perspective.
