35. See Dorrien, “Society as the Subject of Redemption” in Economy, Difference, Empire, 5; though Dorrien’s many summaries and reflections on Niebuhr, his peers, and their era convey the influence of Niebuhr to be vast and certainly more than individualistic, as Chapter 3 of this same volume attests, “The Niebuhrian Legacy,” 46–65.

42. See Niebuhr, On Man’s Nature and His Communities, 31. An earlier elaboration professes: “A realism becomes morally cynical or nihilistic when it assumes that the universal characteristic in human behavior must be regarded as normative. The biblical account of human behavior, upon which Augustine bases his thought, can escape both illusion and cynicism because it recognizes that the corruption of human freedom may make a behavior pattern universal without making it normative. Good and evil are not determined by some fixed structure of human existence,” Niebuhr, Christian Realism and Political Problems, 130.

57. See Cox, The Future of Faith; also his Fire from Heaven with its suggestive subtitle: The Rise of Pentecostal Spirituality and the Reshaping of Religion in the 21st Century on the flourishing of spirit-driven ministries, especially in the cities and not merely in Third World countries. This conveys Cox’s continued interests in what animates and revitalizes religion in the city time and again—as does his earlier Religion in the Secular City.
