Labor Evangelicals: Faith, Authority and Resistance at Work

Labor Evangelicals studies theologically conservative working-class evangelicals in the US who resist the common preconception that they eagerly embrace deregulation, unfettered markets, and globalized capital. By engaging these workers at the grassroots level, the book discerns the complexity of their perspectives about work, unions, class, and power.
