美国“社会福音运动”探析

随着美国工业化时期各种社会问题的日趋严重，一些民间社会改革力量应运而生，“社会福音运动”便是其中之一。“社会：隔音运动”的兴起主要源自三方面的原因：其一，贫困、犯罪、劳资冲突、城市道德失范等社会问题给人们带来的心理忧悒；其二，城市化和移民潮引起的社会人口异质化以及中产阶级住宅郊区化所造成的公众对新教教会的疏离；其三，自然科学新发现与社会科学新思想对神学思想的冲击与启示作用。

Rise of American "Social Gospel Movement"

With the development of the American industrialization many American social reform movements arose accordingly, and the American ＂Social Gospel Movement＂ is one of them. Three reasons led to its rise,i.e, the depression of the clergy caused by the social conflicts, the isolation of the Protestant churches from the mass caused by the diversification of the population and the suburbanization and emigration of the middle-class, and the challenge and enlightenment to the Protestant theology from the new scientific discoveries and social thought trends.
