===Research contributions===

Rectenwald has written extensively on the origins of the movement called [[secularism]], which was founded in London in 1851 by [[George Jacob Holyoake]].<ref>Holyoake, G.J. (1896). ''English Secularism: A Confession of Belief''. Library of Alexandria. pp. 47−48. {{ISBN|978-1-465-51332-8}}. {{ISBN|1-46551332-9}}.</ref> Rectenwald's research has established that secularism was a significant cultural and philosophical source for [[agnosticism]], and for the emerging new creed of "[[scientific naturalism]]” propounded by [[Thomas Henry Huxley]], [[John Tyndall]], [[Herbert Spencer]], and others.  Scientific naturalism is noteworthy for being the philosophical basis of "the Darwinian circle," i.e., the 19th century scientists of note most responsible for the general acceptance of [[Charles Darwin]]’s theory of evolution via natural selection.<ref>Stanley, Matthew. (2015) ''Huxley’s Church and Maxwell’s Demon: From Theistic Science to Naturalistic Science'' (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press); Lightman, Bernard V. and M. S. Reidy (eds.). ''The Age of Scientific Naturalism''; and G. Dawson (eds) (2014) ''Victorian Scientific Naturalism: Community, Identity, Continuity'' (Chicago; London: The University of Chicago Press).</ref>

Rectenwald argues in "Secularism and the cultures of nineteenth-century scientific naturalism," published in ''[[The British Journal for the History of Science]]'' in June 2013: "Not only did early Secularism help clear the way by fighting battles with the state and religious interlocutors, but it also served as a source for what Huxley, almost twenty years later, termed 'agnosticism'...In Holyoake's Secularism we find the beginnings of the mutation of radical infidelity into the respectability necessary for the acceptance of scientific naturalism, and also the distancing of later forms of infidelity incompatible with it. Holyoake's Secularism represents an important early stage of scientific naturalism."<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Rectenwald|first=Michael|date=June 2013|title=Secularism and the cultures of nineteenth-century scientific naturalism|url=https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/british-journal-for-the-history-of-science/article/secularism-and-the-cultures-of-nineteenthcentury-scientific-naturalism/3F6655169ADBF69052E72D431FD6AFFD|journal=The British Journal for the History of Science|language=en|volume=46|issue=2|pages=231–254|doi=10.1017/S0007087412000738|s2cid=145566942|issn=0007-0874}}</ref>

In his book, ''Nineteenth-Century British Secularism: Science, Religion and Literature'', Rectenwald applies the conception of [[secularity]] as developed by philosopher [[Charles Taylor (philosopher)|Charles Taylor]] in ''A Secular Age'' (2007) to 19th-century Great Britain. The book is interdisciplinary, with chapters treating the secular antipodes [[Richard Carlile]] and [[Thomas Carlyle]], the geology of [[Charles Lyell]], the significance of George Jacob Holyoake's secularism, the emergence of scientific [[Naturalism (philosophy)|naturalism]], the religiosity and secularity of the Newman brothers ([[John Henry Newman]], [[Francis William Newman]] and Charles Robert Newman) and the [[postsecularism]] of the novel ''[[Daniel Deronda]]'' by [[George Eliot]].

In Holyoake's ''Secularism'', Rectenwald locates a precursor for Charles Taylor’s version of secularity as the immanent frame that structures the conditions of belief and unbelief in [[modernity]].<ref>Rectenwald, Michael. (2016). ''Nineteenth-Century British Secularism: Science, Religion and Literature''. Houndsmills, Basingstoke, Hampshire, UK; New York: Palgrave Macmillan, p. 106.</ref>  According to a review in ''[[Victorian Studies]]'', "Rectenwald thus offers a revisionist interpretation that, rather than understanding Holyoake's leadership of the free thought movement as a failed rhetorical attempt to make society more secular, sees it as marking a distinct moment in modernity."<ref>Reagles, David G. ''Nineteenth-Century British Secularism: Science, Religion, and Literature'' by Michael Rectenwald (review). ''[[Victorian Studies]]'', Vol. 59, No. 4 (Summer 2017), pp. 681–682.</ref>

Michael Rectenwald is an American scholar who has taught at several institutions, most notably at New York University (NYU).

Career

Rectenwald has taught at universities since 1993, including at Case Western Reserve University, Carnegie Mellon University, Duke University, North Carolina Central University, and New York University, where he was a Professor of Liberal and Global Liberal Studies for more than ten years before retiring in January 2019.

Although his scholarship has focused primarily on 19th-century British secularism, contemporary secularism, and the 19th-century freethought movement, he may be best known as a critic of the contemporary social justice movement and its effects on academia.

Critique of social justice and leftism in academia

@antipcnyuprof Twitter account

On September 12, 2016, Rectenwald created the Twitter account @antipcnyuprof and began tweeting criticisms of what he saw as excesses of political correctness and social justice ideology on North American colleges and universities. A student reporter for the Washington Square News, New York University's weekly student newspaper, discovered him; and he subsequently gave an interview revealing himself as the NYU faculty member behind the @antipcnyuprof Twitter handle.[1]

In a November 3, 2016 op-ed at The Washington Post, Rectenwald claimed that two days after the student interview, he was summoned by Dean Fred Schwarzbach and was "strongly encouraged to take a paid leave of absence."[2] Schwarzbach denied Rectenwald's claims and posted all email correspondence between the two from November 1 through November 11, showing that Rectenwald had requested the leave himself.[3]

NYU cancels Yiannapoulos event

On October 30, 2018, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio requested that NYU cancel an in-class lecture on Halloween that was to be delivered the next day by Rectenwald's guest, the controversial British polemicist Milo Yiannopoulos. The mayor cited concerns about the availability of the New York City Police Department (NYPD) to perform security duties at NYU during the same time they would be needed to police New York's Village Halloween Parade.[4] NYU complied with the mayor's request.[5]

Springtime for Snowflakes

In 2018, the New English Review Press published Rectenwald's memoir, Springtime for Snowflakes: Social Justice and Its Postmodern Parentage. Rectenwald recounts his academic career and his intellectual evolution. He critiques the contemporary social justice culture in the academy, arguing that it is rooted in socialist and postmodernist thought and describing its constituent concepts such as deconstruction, belief in toxic masculinity, social constructivism, and radical constructivism. Rectenwald concludes that such ideology has promoted an authoritarian and dogmatic culture in parts of the academy.[6][7]
