Unlike notions of gender, ethnicity, and race, the notion of class
has rarely been reflected in religious and theological studies in
recent decades. The few who currently use the term "class" think
'poor people, ' 'social stratification, ' or 'income
differentials.' Commonly overlooked are power differentials, the
tensions between classes, and the question of production. The
essays in this volume discuss what new discourses on class in
religious and theological studies might add to cutting-edge
developments in these fields. Religion, Theology, and Class
demonstrates that just like the lack of the study of class distorts
the study of religion and theology, renewed engagement leads to new
insights and broader horizons. The audience for this work includes
students and scholars of religion and theology with various
research interests, as well as students and scholars of other
fields like economics, sociology, political studies, and cultural
studies. Widespread classroom use is anticipated as this text is
written in an accessible and engaging style.
