He rebuts caricatures without slipping into triumphalism, and offers sensible advice for how evangelicals can contribute even more fruitfully in the future. --Peter D. Feaver, Director, Program in American Grand Strategy, Duke University Mark Amstutz has given us a wonderfully detailed overview of how evangelicals have addressed issues of American involvement in the world. It is all here: the missionary movement, the theological focus on the Middle East, recent 'social action' movements, left and right-and much more. And to top it off, some helpful counsel about how to do it better. A must-read for all who care about religion's impact on global realities! --Richard Mouw, President and Professor of Christian Philosophy, Fuller Theological Seminary Mark Amstutz is a long-time scholar of international ethics, morality, and forgiveness. In Evangelicals and American Foreign Policy he describes and analyzes the evolution and impact of this important segment of the U.S. public on an increasingly important subject. It is an excellent source and highly recommended for both general readers and specialists in religion and politics. --Dan Caldwell, author of Vortex of Conflict: U.S. Policy toward Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq Author InformationProfessor of Political Science, Wheaton College Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
