Description: This volume considers two authors who represent different but complementary responses to social injustice and human degradation.

Both authors reacted to the extreme social inequality and strife that occurred between 1890 and the beginning of World War II. They shared a total commitment to the cause of social justice and their Christian faith. The strategic differences between them; Rauschenbusch a pastor, writer, historian, and seminary professor, Day a journalist who became an organizer, grew out of a common sustained reaction against the massive deprivation that surrounded them. There is no spiritual rivalry here.

Both Rauschenbusch and Day are examples of an explicit recognition of the social dimension of Christian spirituality and a radical acting-out of their response.
