Download or read book Missionary Zeal and Institutional Control written by Jon Miller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the Basel Mission in the Gold Coast (now Ghana) before the First World War. Miller reconstructs the backgrounds and motivations of the mission's participants and describes the organizational structure that shaped their activities at home and abroad. He then traces some serious and recurrent internal problems to the commitment to difficult Pietist beliefs about authority and obedience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Sands of Empire, veteran political journalist and award-winning author Robert W. Merry examines the misguided concepts that have fueled American foreign policy since the end of the Cold War. The emergence in the George W. Bush administration of America as Crusader State, bent on remaking the world in its preferred image, is dangerous and self-defeating, he points out. Moreover, these grand-scale flights of interventionism, regime change, and the use of pre-emptive armed force are without precedent in American history. Merry offers a spirited description of a powerful political core whose ideas have replaced conservative reservations about utopian visions -- these neocons who "embrace a brave new world in which American exceptionalism holds sway," imagining that others around the globe can be made to abandon their cultures in favor of our ideals. He traces the strains of Wilsonism that have now merged into an adventurous and hazardous foreign policy, particularly as described by William Kristol, Francis Fukuyama, Max Boot, and Paul Wolfowitz, among others. He examines the challenge of Samuel Huntington's supposition that the clash of civilizations defines present and future world conflict. And he rejects the notion of The New York Times's Thomas L. Friedman that America is not only the world's role model for globally integrated free-market capitalism, but that it has a responsibility to foster, support, and sustain globalization worldwide. From the first president Bush to Clinton to the second Bush presidency, the United States has compromised its global leadership, endangered its security, and failed to meet the standard of justified intervention, Merry suggests. The country must reset its global strategies to protect its interests and the West's, to maintain stability in strategic areas, and to fight radical threats, with arms if necessary. For anything less than these necessities, American blood should remain in American veins.
Book Synopsis Missionary Zeal and Institutional Control by : Jon Miller
Download or read book Missionary Zeal and Institutional Control written by Jon Miller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the historical literature on mission, this book stands out for its detailed examination of the organizational dynamics that gave shape and brought enduring success: to the Evangelical Missionary Society at Basel. A first-rate account of the early Basel Mission on the Gold Coast of West Africa (present-day Ghana), this volume takes readers inside the mission itself, revealing its dynamic, though sometimes contradictory, methods of motivation and discipline and how they impacted effective evangelism both at home and abroad. Working from archival records, Jon Miller details the collaboration across class lines that made the mission possible, and he shows how basic pietist beliefs about authority and obedience were the source of both the mission's strengths and its most serious internal weaknesses. Also included are two dozen photographs, a foreword by Richard V. Pierard, and an afterword by Paul Jenkins.

Book Synopsis The Social Control of Religious Zeal by : Jon Miller
Download or read book The Social Control of Religious Zeal written by Jon Miller and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How has the organization of the Christian missionary movement managed to persist for almost two centuries? Jon Miller covers the activities of the Evangelical Missionary Society of Basel, Switzerland, from 1828 to 1918 as it struggled to bring its Pietist religious beliefs to the people of the Gold Coast of West Africa. The mission gave different social classes an opportunity to interact in a way that would have been unlikely in Europe. Many of the missionaries became socially mobile, over the generations, through their evangelical work. In matters of governance, Pietist beliefs called for concentrated power at the center. That discipline channeled the zeal of the missionaries, but it alienated ordinary members and suppressed their initiative, while at the same time allowing creativity among eccentric nonconformists. Miller interprets these contradictions, explores their consequences at home and abroad, and explains how the mission persisted despite the personal pain its members experienced. The mission remains active and influential in Africa to this day. This study of the passage of an organization through time will interest organizational sociologists, sociologists of religion, and students of social theory and social change.
