Marx, Critical Theory And Religion: A Critique Of Rational Choice by Warren S Goldstein
Marxism has tended to ignore religion assuming it is something that would eventually disappear even though it retained theological elements. This collection of essays brings together a group of scholars who use frameworks provided by Marx and Critical Theory in analyzing religion. Its goal is to establish a critical theory of religion within the sociology of religion as an alternative to rational choice.Warren Goldstein is a history professor at the University of Hartford and the chair of the History Department. He has had a lifetime passion with physics and is a prizewinning historian, essayist, and journalist. His work has appeared in a variety of major publications, including the New York Times, Washington Post, Boston Globe, Chicago Tribune, and many others. Playing for Keeps: A History of Early Baseball and William Sloane Coffin, Jr: A Sacred Impatience are two of his previous books.
