| Summary: | James Davison Hunter's "The New Class and the Young Evangelicals" (1980) provides a characterization of a left-wing evangelicalism through a content analysis of two leading periodicals and then attempts to use the New Class as a theoretical construct to explain the orientations of these "Young Evangelicals." Hunter's content analysis is generally valid. His discussion is problematic in terms of the historical background and theological orientations of the two magazines. His attempt to employ the New Class construct as an explanatory factor fails because his utilization is internally inconsistent. |
