内容简介 在线阅读本书
First published in 1907, Christianity and the Social Crisis outsold every other religious volume for three years and then became a mainstay for Christians and other religious people seriously interested in social justice, inspiring leaders such as Reinhold and Richard Niebuhr, Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, and Bishop Desmond Tutu. Christianity and the Social Crisis in the 21st Century brings this classic to a new generation with the addition of new essays by leading religious thinkers who have continued the legacy of Walter Rauschenbusch and the Social Gospel Movement:
Phyllis Trible responding to "The Historical Roots of Christianity"
Tony Campolo responding to "The Social Aims of Jesus"
Joan Chittister responding to "The Social Impetus of Primitive Christianity"
Stanley Hauerwas responding to "Why Has Christianity Never Undertaken the Work of Social Reconstruction?"
Cornel West responding to "The Present Crisis"
James A. Forbes Jr. responding to "The Stake of the Church in the Social Movement"
Jim Wallis responding to "What to Do"
作者简介
Walter Rauschenbusch (1861-1918) was the leading proponent of the Social Gospel Movement whose mission was to reform society to meet the social needs of the poor through the ministrations of the institutional church. PBS recently called him "one of the most influential American religious leaders of the last 100 years."

Republication in this form is a forceful intervention in contemporary debates in American religion and politics.
Library Journal
Many of the societal concerns and questions of 1907, e.g., his alarm over iner-city poverty, societal injustice, crime, and ineffectual government, are just as relevant today.
Christian Century
"Skillfully fashioned and perfectly timed, [Rauschenbusch’s] book was a supercharger for a movement . . . and set a new standard for political theology. Rightly viewed from the beginning as the greatest statement of the social gospel movement."
The New York Times Book Review
In a 100th-anniversary edition, Paul Raushenbush, the author’s great-grandson, has reprinted the text with essays by Cornel West, the Rev. Jim Wallis and others to prove that one can be a dedicated Christian and a social reformer at the same time.
