Alan Wolfe's work in recent years has focussed on cultural and religious issues in
American politics. Wolfe's One Nation, After All (1999) argued that the "culture war" was largely the work of intellectuals; most Americans were not deeply divided over moral issues. His forthcoming book The Transformation of American Religion uses ethnographic data to argue that American religion has been shaped by American culture more than the other way around.
