This trend has profound international implications, threatening efforts to narrow the gap between rich and poor. Underscoring the need for sustained action, George Rupp urges the secular West to reckon with the continuing power of religious conviction and embrace the full extent of the world's diversity. While individualism is a powerful force in Western cultures and a cornerstone of Western foreign policy, it elicits strong resistance in traditional communities. Drawing on decades of research and experience, Rupp pushes modern individualism beyond its foundational beliefs to recognize the place of communal practice in our world. Affirming the value of communities and the productive role religion plays in many lives, he advocates new solutions to such global challenges as conflicts in the developing world, income inequality, climate change, and mass migration. 410 0$aReligion, culture, and public life. 606 $aCommunitarianism 606 $aIndividualism 606 $aReligious communities 615 0$aCommunitarianism. 615 0$aIndividualism. 615 0$aReligious communities. 676 $a302.5/4 700 $aRupp$b George$01614259 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826104303321 996 $aBeyond individualism$93943996 997 $aUNINA
