Publisher's Synopsis

In 1895 Georg Jellinek, a legal scholar from Heidelberg, emphasized the role of American religious traditions in the development of constitutional rights, challenging predominant narratives inherited from the Enlightenment. Annabelle Meier reviews Jellinek's theory showing that evangelical demands for liberty of conscience in colonial America laid the groundwork for religious freedom, thereby anticipating the legal structure of modern human rights.
