POLITICS Fighting over the Founders

Revoking Citizenship

ANDREW M. SCHOCKET

BEN HERZOG With a foreword by EDIBERTO ROMÁN

Expatriation in American from the Colonial Era to the War on Terror

NEW IN PAPERBACK

How We Remember the American Revolution “Fighting over the Founders is divided into cross-sections, each approaching different parts of our national culture, groups which alternately revere, recreate, and research the Revolution’s legacy... Fighting over the Founders, thankfully, turns the page away from the crass exploitation of the framers’ legacies, toward a new understanding.” —Public Books

“That Revoking Citizenship not only provokes…questions but also simultaneously provides the groundwork necessary for further inquiry into these issues illustrates why the book is likely to become a staple in the canon of historical and legal scholarship on citizenship.” —The Journal of American History

“Anyone eager to understand the political shifts of the Obama era needs to read Dombrink’s new book. In clear, straightforward prose, Dombrink analyzes the growth of the Tea Party, the ebbing of the religious right, and the emergence of the ‘new culture wars.’ Dombrink shrewdly analyzes the changing role of religion in American politics, and offers a peek at what’s to come.” —Diane H.
