A Study In Ethics And Politics
Reinhold Niebuhr was one of America's foremost twentieth-century religious thinkers and social critics. As a pastor he became deeply interested in social problems, ultimately abandoning his hopes for the church's moral rule of society and becoming a Socialist activist.
'Moral Man And Immoral Society' is Niebuhr's eloquent argument for the church's involvement in social reforms as well as a platform for his beliefs that men are sinners, that society is ruled by self-interest, and that history is characterized by irony, not progress.
