**War Against the Poor: Low-Intensity Conflict and Christian Faith** by Jack Nelson-Pallmeyer isn't your typical Sunday sermon material – and that's exactly why it packs such a punch. This provocative non-fiction work dissects how military strategies morphed into economic warfare against the world's most vulnerable populations, challenging Christians to confront uncomfortable truths about faith and justice.
Nelson-Pallmeyer, a respected theologian and social justice advocate, connects the dots between U.S. foreign policy and systematic poverty with surgical precision. He argues that "low-intensity conflict" isn't just about distant battlefields – it's happening in our own backyards through economic policies that devastate communities.
Perfect for progressive Christians, social justice warriors, theology students, and anyone who thinks faith should come with a backbone. This religion and politics crossover will appeal to readers seeking authentic Christian responses to global inequality.
This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks shows thoughtful previous ownership – because the best books get passed around.
**Reader Reviews:** "Opened my eyes to connections I'd never considered. Uncomfortable but necessary reading." • "Nelson-Pallmeyer writes with clarity and conviction – this changed how I view my faith's role in justice work."
