Yet the conversation--among pundits, politicians, and scholars--has focused overwhelmingly on hot-button domestic issues, such as abortion and gay marriage. In Evangelicals and American Foreign Policy, Mark Amstutz looks beyond our shores at Evangelicals' role in American foreign affairs. Writers have generally traced Evangelicals' political awakening to the 1970s or, at the earliest, to World War II. But Amstutz digs deeper, arguing that Evangelicals were active in foreign affairs since at least the nineteenth century, when Protestant missionaries spread throughout the world, gaining fluency in foreign languages and developing knowledge of distant lands. They were on the front lines of American global engagement--serving as agents of humanitarianism and cultural transformation. Indeed, long before anyone had heard of Woodrow Wilson, Evangelicals were America's first internationalists."--Book jacket. 000728629 650_0 $$aReligion and international relations$$zUnited States. 000728629 650_0 $$aEvangelicalism$$xPolitical aspects$$zUnited States. 000728629 650_0 $$aChristianity and politics$$zUnited States. 000728629 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xForeign relations$$xReligious aspects. 000728629 85200 $$bgen$$hE183.7$$i.A64$$i2014 000728629 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:728629$$pGLOBAL_SET 000728629 980__ $$aBIB 000728629 980__ $$aBOOK
