{"product_id":"evangelicals-and-empire-275140","title":"Evangelicals and Empire","description":"This groundbreaking collection considers empire from a global perspective, exploring the role of evangelicals in political, social, and economic engagement at a time when empire is alternately denounced and embraced. It brings noted thinkers from a range of theological perspectives together to engage the most explosive and discussed theorists of empire in the first decade of the twenty-first century, Michael Hardt and Antonio Negri. ??Literary theorist Hardt and political philosopher Negri, named \"innovators to watch\" by *Time* magazine, are coauthors of the provocative book *Empire* and its sequel, *Multitude*. In *Empire*, they argued that nation-states are subordinated to the power of transnational, global capitalism. At the same time, they viewed empire in its very tendency toward de-centering as opening up new, creative possibilities for the \"multitude\" of ordinary folk to spread and practice democracy. In *Multitude*, they argued that their basic arguments on empire had not been disproved by 9\/11 and its aftermath. ??Using Hardt and Negri's work as springboards, the contributors to this volume grapple with what empire is and what evangelicalism is and challenge evangelicalism's identification with right-wing politics. The book includes a foreword by Nicholas Wolterstorff and an afterword by Hardt and Negri.  \u003cbr\u003e***-Publisher.***  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis groundbreaking collection considers empire from a global perspective, exploring the role of evangelicals in political, social, and economic engagement at a time when empire is alternately denounced and embraced.
