Volume 2 of Christianity and Freedom illuminates how Christian
minorities and transnational Christian networks contribute to the
freedom and flourishing of societies across the globe, even amidst
pressure and violent persecution. Featuring unprecedented field
research by some of the world's most distinguished scholars, it
documents the outsized role of Christians in promoting human rights
and religious freedom; fighting injustice; stimulating economic
equality; providing education, social services, and health care;
and nurturing democratic civil society. Readers will come away
surprised and sobered to learn how this very Christian link to
freedom often invites persecution. What are the dimensions of
persecution and how are Christians responding to that pressure?
What resources - theological, social, or transnational - do they
marshal in leavening their societies? What will be lost if the
Christian presence is marginalized? The answers to these questions
are of crucial relevance in a world awash with religious extremism
and deepening instability.
