Modern day abolitionist York Moore vividly describes the cause of global justice as the great dream of God. Unpacking the biblical account of the last things, Moore makes connections between the end-time work of Jesus and our own efforts at justice. Whenever a new well is dug or a sex trafficker brought to justice, we see the dream taking hold.

She emphasizes the value of a group process that probes the inner as well as the outer work required in social activism, highlighting instances of strength and heroism. Written in clear enjoyable prose, this book will lead readers to a new understanding of the demands of social justice in a global economy on an endangered planet."--Back cover

Struggles for global justice are being fought by civil society groups across the globe, addressing global inequalities, challenging neoliberal market driven globalization and demanding to remedy its negative implications. This book examines the roles religious communities and organizations in particular play in the struggles for global justice, roles too often ignored by scholars of the Global Justice Movement (GJM). It has two central themes: - the role religion and religious actors play in global justice struggles, and - the idea that justice is a contested concept among both religious and secular actors which requires some sort of ‘faith’ from its proponents. These chapters transcend simplistic either/or binaries highlighting the difficulties of clearly distinguishing between religious and secular, progressive and conservative, or rational and irrational motives and norms in struggles for justice. Challenging the secularization paradigm that marginalizes the role religious actors play in public life these chapters show how these actors engage with a broad range of justice issues, how deeply contested justice is, and how its meaning may vary and change among religious actors as a result of the social or political context within which an injustice is encountered. The chapters originally published as a special issue in Globalizations.
