Research Areas
The main research I've done focuses on the interaction between religious thought and sociological forms of analysis. I'm especially interested in the "classical" period of sociology. I'm currently studying issues related to religion and violence.
Scholarly Work
My doctoral dissertation (at Claremont Graduate School, 1987) was on the pioneering German sociologists Ernst Troeltsch and Max Weber. I've published a dozen or so essays, articles and book chapters on the work of Weber, Troeltsch, and Georg Simmel.
