The Rise of Dominionism

Frederick Clarkson on in Public Eye
Recently however, the term has become fashionable with some lumping every form of evangelical Christianity and every faction in the Bush White House into one big, single-minded imperial dominionist plot. Dominionism is narrower and more profound than that. It is the driving ideology of the Christian Right.

The sidebar, in making distinctions, characterizes as hard dominionism Christian Reconstructionism.

Gary North in the reconstructionist Chalcedon Report sees things just the opposite. What Went Wrong with the Christian Right, he says, is that it is not driven by the reconstructionist agenda.
