The Gap in God’s Country

Laurie M. Johnson is professor of political science at Kansas State University and president of The Maurin Academy (https: //pmaurin.org). Most of her work has involved developing an understanding and critique of classical liberal theory and includes works on Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, and Tocqueville. Her most recent book, Ideological Possession and the Rise of the New Right, sets the stage for this book with broader implications for what we can do to address our problems.
