Reinhold Niebuhr teológiai és társadalometikai gondolatainak értékelése
Analyzing the Theological and Ethical Thinking of Reinhold Niebuhr

Summary/Abstract: As a theologian Niebuhr is best known for his “Christian Realism” which emphasized the persistent roots of evil in human life. In his works he stressed the egoism, the pride and hypocrisy of nations and classes. Later he saw these as ultimately the fruit of the insecurity and anxious defensiveness of humans in their finiteness. On the political field, his activities were influenced by his socialist-Christian convictions. Later he broke with the Socialist Party over its pacifist and non-interventionist attitude in foreign policy. He also constantly criticized the society dehumanised by the technological era.
