Michael G. Thompson explores the way radical-left and ecumenical Protestant internationalists articulated new understandings of the ethics of international relations between the 1920's and the 1940's. Missionary leaders such as Sherwood Eddy and journalists such as Kirby Page, as well as realist theologians including Reinhold Niebuhr, developed new kinds of religious enterprises devoted to producing knowledge on international relations for public consumption. For God and Globe centers on the excavation of two such efforts-the leading left-wing Protestant interwar periodical, The World Tomorrow, and the landmark Oxford 1937 ecumenical world conference. Thompson charts the simultaneous peak and decline of the movement in John Foster Dulles's ambitious efforts to link Christian internationalism to the cause of international organization after World War II. Concerned with far more than foreign policy, Christian internationalists developed critiques of racism, imperialism, and nationalism in world affairs. They rejected exceptionalist frameworks and eschewed the dominant "Christian nation" imaginary as a lens through which to view U.S. foreign relations. In the intellectual history of religion and American foreign relations, Protestantism most commonly appears as an ideological ancillary to expansionism and nationalism. For God and Globe challenges this account by recovering a movement that held Christian universalism to be a check against nationalism rather than a boon to it. 410 0$aUnited States in the world. 606 $aProtestantism$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aChristianity and international relations$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aChristianity and politics$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xChurch history$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aProtestantism$xHistory 615 0$aChristianity and international relations$xHistory 615 0$aChristianity and politics$xHistory 676 $a261.8/7 686 $aBP 1700$2rvk 700 $aThompson$b Michael G$g(Michael Glenn),$01054002 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460760603321 996 $aFor God and globe$92486305 997 $aUNINA
