Addressing a phenomenon that continues to shape our culture today,
Professor Lunden presents a full-length analysis of the
relationship between business and religion during the 1920s. He
examines both the impact of the business mentality on Protestant
institutions and values and the effects of religion on business.
Beginning with a discussion of business and entrepreneurship as
determining factors in the development of American society, Lunden
looks at the position of the Protestant churches vis-a-vis
business. He next explores business attitudes toward religion.
Commenting on the adoption of specific Judeo-Christian concepts,
religion. Commenting on the adoption of specific Judeo-Christian
concepts, he describes both how these concepts were applied in a
business context and what concessions were made by business when
Protestant values came into conflict with those of the commercial
world. In his final chapter he considers the implications of the
business community's appropriation of religious functions and the
widespread belief that its mission was linked to the redemption of
society.
