Angebote / Angebote:

Documentary portrait of Christian evangelicals who have ?left the Right?In this book Marcia Pally documents the surprising emergence of the ?new evangelicals.? These are people of devout faith who have moved away from the Religious Right and who support liberal democracy and economic justice ? people whose anti-consumerist, anti-militarist activism focuses less on legislating morality and more on poverty relief, environmental protection, and equal rights and respect for people of all creeds and cultures. Pally creates a typology of ?new evangelical? political and economic activism, touching on the high-profile issues of abortion, gay marriage, and environmental conservation. She devotes much of her book to personal interviews with select ?new evangelicals? across the country, ages 19?74, assembling a collage of thoughtful, passionate voices that create a compelling snapshot of this significant new movement in American Christianity.
