Progressive and Conservative Religious Ideologies

Více o knize

The book delves into the complex interplay between religion and ideologies during the 1960s, revealing that conservative movements often embraced progressive ideas while progressive narratives were rooted in conservative values. It examines key controversies such as the Civil Rights Movement and the Anti-War Movements, highlighting how themes of protest and retrieval intertwined. Lints argues that religion plays a dual role, serving both prophetic and domesticating functions, thereby complicating the simplistic categorization of movements as purely conservative or progressive.
