Présentation de l'éditeur
Many have written of them. It is not the purpose of this study to give in any detail the problem of the redemption of the city, though we must sketch it in its broad outlines and consider something of its complexity. The primary purpose is to show the really notable progress of the last two or three decades: in the better understanding of the problem, in the better adaptation and higher efficiency of municipal government, in constructive charity, in the highly specialized ministry of various organizations, in the recogniton that there are forces unseen but tremendously felt which must be directed, and in the readjustment of the church to meet new conditions. Moreover, to show that this progress is an earnest of a brighter future, that while the force now attacking the city problems unaided can never win the victory, the initial success fully justifies a renewed and more vigorous attack.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the rapid growth of cities and the social issues it generates. Beginning with the notion that cities are in an adolescent phase, the author draws a connection between physical and social development and the need to establish a sense of self. As a result of its immaturity, the city struggles with administrative issues, inequity, and a growing sense of dissatisfaction among its residents. Determined to address these challenges, urban populations have formed organizations dedicated to improving their communities. The book argues that while this is a step in the right direction, only through a religious awakening can cities truly be redeemed and attain a state of maturity. The author illustrates the importance of religious institutions and leaders in social transformation, describing community-based initiatives such as charitable societies, settlements, and federated churches. Ultimately, the book offers a hopeful perspective that sees the potential for cities to become beacons of social justice and moral strength through a concerted effort to uplift the disadvantaged and promote the common good.
