Organizing Visions is a collection of essays featuring premier scholars and practitioners engaging in critical and constructive social ethical reflection on a range of organizing experiences. Although the chapters are interdisciplinary in method and consider different subjects, collectively, they reflect on the current state of the field of Christian social ethics and its rich relation to organizing movements. The book makes the case that Christian social ethics emerged out of and in conversation with major social movements in U.S. history and today is defined by a commitment to studying these movements. As such, Christian social ethics is, by nature, intersectional, interdisciplinary, and committed to social justice organizing.
