RLST 086 SC - Christianity, Capital & Communism

This course explores the ethical, political, and historical relationships between wealth, income inequality, and social organization from the earliest Christians to 20th-century communist revolutions in historically Christian countries (e.g., Russia, Ethiopia, Cuba) and beyond. We ask key questions, e.g.: Were early Christians communists? Are Christianity, ethics, & capitalism compatible? How do economics, sex normativity, & Christianity intersect? Are US Christianities imperial religions?
