“In adopting some form of prohibition legislation during World War I, the United States was far from unique. Partial liquor control measures . . . had been enacted by many countries during the war, and some of the new drink regulations lasted permanently. But in its effort to totally eradicate the use of intoxicating liquor, the United States stood alone among major industrialized nations. The moral fervor of evangelical Protestants had intersected with the Progressive reform wave and the institutional openings provided by the war. Combined with political representation weighted heavily to rural districts and the limited political power of the law’s targets, the anti liquor crusaders were able to rewrite the Constitution and federal law.” what is the argument of this passage?
