Legal form alone is insufficient for Americanisation to take hold.
Evidence
Legislative change without embedding in religious educational structures — the madrasa, the Sunday school, the parochial school, the gurukul, the church’s children’s ministry — is fragile. When religious institutions that provide education and social services in a community continue to use corporal punishment after legal prohibition, the prohibition has limited behavioral reach. The strategic insight is that working with religious educational institutions before and alongside legislative change — building the alternative-practice capacity within those institutions, training their teachers, developing their materials — creates the infrastructure that makes legal prohibition durable rather than nominal. — , The Rod and the Child, 8206 (
