Dr. Adams specializes in American cultural history with dual emphases on religious identity formation and political radicalism.

The interdisciplinary nature of his work bridges literary analysis with historical sociology, particularly through case studies of Jewish American communities and urban political movements.

The 2014 monograph analyzes the evolution of American Judaism through political and theological lenses, while the 2005 work investigates street-level radicalism in New York City.
