Labor Evangelicals studies theologically conservative working class evangelicals in the United States who resist the common preconception that they eagerly embrace deregulation, unfettered markets, and globalized capital. Methodologically, this book studies evangelical workers at the grassroots level to discern the complexity of their perspectives about work, unions, class, and power. This book shows how white and African American evangelicals think about labor in working-class communities in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and Moncure, North Carolina.

Arvustused

Rich in information and bringing into attention a valuable topic, Ken Estey monograph entitled: Labor, Evangelicals, Faith, Authority, and Resistance at Work is not only a contribution to the contemporary scholarship, but also an invitation to debate, discussion, introspection, reading and understanding the contemporary realities in a different key and a bridge to future similar research. For this reason, the work can be surely recommended to any category of readers . (Iuliu-Marius Morariu, Astra Salvensis, Vol. 14 (26), 2025)
