This book explores the surprisingly disruptive role of religion for
progressive and conservative ideologies in the tumultuous decade of
the 1960s. Conservative movements were far more progressive than
the standard religious narrative of the decade alleges and the
notoriously progressive ethos of the era was far more conservative
than our collective memory has recognized. Lints explores how the
themes of protest and retrieval intersect each other in ironic ways
in the significant concrete controversies of the 1960s - the Civil
Rights Movement, Second Feminist Movement, The Jesus Movements, and
the Anti-War Movements - and in the conceptual conflicts of ideas
during the era - The Death of God Movement, the end of ideology
controversy, and the death of foundationalism. Lints argues that
religion and religious ideologies serve both a prophetic function
as well as a domesticating one, and that neither "conservative" nor
"progressive" movements have cornered the market in either
direction. In the process Lints helps us better understand the
complex role of religion in cultural formation.
