Andrew L. Whitehead studies how religion, particularly a phenomenon called Christian nationalism (the belief that the United States is and should be a fundamentally Christian nation), shapes American politics and social attitudes. His work uses survey data to examine connections between religious identity and views on topics such as voting rights, race, economic inequality, and political leadership.
