Abstract:
AbstractUnion Theological Seminary (Union) in New York City, established in 1836, has long been regarded as one of the best and most liberal Protestant theological seminaries in the United States. Served by prominent Christian theologians such as Harry Emerson Fosdick, Reinhold Niebuhr, and Paul Tillich, Union reached its peak development in the first half of the twentieth century, setting a standard of theological education in the United States and promoting the ecumenical movement around the world.

Abstract:
Beyond his academic contribution of Black Liberation Theology to the church and academy at large, James Cone should be remembered on a personal level as one who prioritized the task of teaching his students, placed the student perspective and the development of independent student voices at the center of his pedagogy, pushed his students to take classroom learning out into the world, maintained exemplary standards of consistency in his theological work and moral character, and contributed to the legacy of his home institution Union Theological Seminary in immeasurable ways. This is one of several short essays presented by recent students at a public forum at Union Theological Seminary after his death in 2018.

Abstract:
This work reconsiders the history of the Socialist Party of America during the Great Depression and the unaffiliated social-democratic movement developed by those who left the Socialist Party to join President Roosevelt’s New Deal coalition. The substance and implications of socialism’s revival in the 1930s have received insufficient attention, overshadowed by an emphasis on the character and impact of American communism. Viewed over multiple decades, socialists remained relevant in the labor movement. Their integration into the New Deal coalition confounds claims that American socialists were too rigid and programmatic in their beliefs to be effective political actors in the United States. Their shift from a revolutionary socialism to a pragmatic embrace of social democracy suggests that socialists were able to find an accommodation with both capitalism and with the Democratic Party. For much of the Depression, the Socialist Party was a vibrant political force on the American left, challenging the mainstream parties to address the economic crisis, creating a space in which women claimed leadership, and provided a cohort of skilled organizers for the labor movement. During the revival, women were central to the party’s successful organizing efforts, provided vital election support, publically debated the meanings of femininity and masculinity, and held important offices within the party. Socialists also built institutions. Highlander and Soviet House, two institutions that must be understood within their proper socialist contexts, developed out of the radicalism fostered by Reinhold Niebuhr at Union Theological Seminary. Radical young socialists, drawn to Reinhold Niebuhr’s pessimistic critique of capitalism, carried their belief that capitalism was in its terminal crisis into the SP’s Revolutionary Policy Committee. Their energy yielded impressive organization success for the labor movement. The continued intellectual coherence of socialists in the decades after the revival suggest that evolving socialist ideas survived within and at odds with the New Deal coalition. Far from abandoning socialism, those socialists who participated in the New Deal coalition maintained a distinctive set of ideas. The existence of a strong cohort of women in the Socialist Party’s revival runs contrary to scholars’ claims that women did not play a significant role in the Socialist Party after the early 1920s. Socialist women rebuilt socialist institutions during the Depression. They were central to the party’s successful organizing efforts; provided vital election support; debated the meanings of femininity and masculinity; and held offices within the party. Viewed from within the confines of parties and elections, the history of the socialist movement in the United States appears limited in its scope and importance. During the 1930s, socialists’ successful municipal projects were eclipsed by rising factionalism and the unrequited attraction of revolution. Socialists seemed much less interesting and their critiques less incisive and useful when mired in historical accounts that give primacy to factional feuds and electoral politics. This was not the entirety of the socialist experience in the 1930s. Socialists did fight amongst themselves and against communists, primarily with words but also with fists. They also served as productive forces and provided significant leadership within the labor movement. Throughout those decades, they continued to distinguish themselves from other trade unionists. Socialists retained their class-based critique of American society even as they softened their ideas about the remedies that they intended to employ to make that society more equitable.

Abstract:
Founded in 1836, Union Theological Seminary sought to be a school where moderate theological views could be taught in the heart of America’s most important city, New York City. Scholars have recognized Union’s role in the fundamentalist-modernist controversy of the 1920s, but few have noticed its impact in Chinese Protestantism. From 1911-1949, 196 Union alumni - an average of five students for each graduating class - went to China. Thirty-nine of these former students were Chinese nationals. Many of these Chinese graduates became key leaders in China’s Young Men’s Christian Association, the Christian colleges in Republican China and the Three-Self Patriotic Movement. Men such as Y.T. Wu (Wu Yaozong), K.H. Ting (Ding Guangxun), Timothy Tingfang Lew (Liu Tingfang), William Hung (Hung Ye), and Andrew Y.Y. Tsu (Zhu Yuyue) provide interesting case studies into how Union influenced Chinese Christianity. I apply insight from two sociologists, James Davison Hunter and Mark Granovetter, to new archival findings to contend that Union Seminary developed a dense network of influential Chinese and American Christians in the Sino-Foreign Protestant Establishment. The New York seminary acted as a social hub where Christian leaders established and strengthened their relational ties. Over time these ties formed a dense social network that influenced Sino-American relations and Chinese Protestantism. Union advanced the indigenization of Christianity in twentieth century China, helping “Christianity in China” become “Chinese Christianity. Union's role in China has been largely unnoticed until now.

Abstract:
The sixth chapter analyzes theological schools that realigned themselves with the modern research university. Several narratives are explored: the struggle between Thomas Jefferson’s University of Virginia and seminary founders like John Holt Rice; the influence of the German university through immigrants like Phillip Schaff and theologians who studied abroad; the pragmatic adaptation of the German encyclopedia for organizing theological studies; the impact of the American university’s pragmatism, social sciences, and social reform on seminaries; and the influence of progressive education and the religious education movement on theological schools. University Divinity schools led this movement, especially the University of Chicago built by William Rainey Harper, but a number of independent schools, like Union Theological Seminary in New York, sought such realignment as “theological universities.” This realignment of theological schools had significant benefits, as it increased elective studies, developed specialized fields of ministry, and brought the social sciences to theological education. However, the realignment had unforeseen problems as it widened the gap between academics and those of professional practice; distanced faculty from interdisciplinary work and church leadership; replaced the Bible as a unifying discipline with “the scientific method”; and replaced the integrative role of oral pedagogies with scholarly lectures and the research seminar.

Abstract In 1923 William Jennings Bryan stood unchallenged m, “the most widely influential layman in the church.” Three presidential campaigns, two years as secretary of state, a nationally syndicated newspaper column, and over twenty-five years on the Chautauqua lecture circuit ensured his fame. Though religion and politics were never far removed in Bryan’s mind, religious issues, especially the threat of Darwinism to Christianity and Christian civilization, had come to dominate Bryan’s agenda after the war.·’ In 1921 Bryan described the danger: “I believe that the Darwinian doctrine leads people into agnosticism and panther ism, plunged the world into the worst of wars, and is dividing society into classes that fight each other on a brute basis. It is time that the Christian church should understand what is going on and array itself against these enemies of the church, Christianity, and civilization.” In direct contradiction to the law of love proclaimed by Christianity, Dar winds taught a materialist doctrine of “survival of the fittest.” An invitation from Union Theological Seminary in Virginia to deliver the James Sprints Lectures in October 1921 gave Bryan the opportunity to expand, organize, and further publicize his thoughts. The lectures, published under the title In His Image, provided the most comprehensive statement of the faith and ideas that motivated Bryan’s last great crusade:’

Abstract ASSESSING THE AMERICAN Student Christian Movement in December 1927, Henry P. Van Dusen, now a lecturer at Union Theological Seminary in New York, characterized the years since Indianapolis as “the age of negativism.” He and his peers, no longer students, returned from their travel abroad and took up academic appointments at prestigious schools in the Northeast—Union Theological Seminary, Auburn Seminary, Yale. Collectively they knew what they had rejected—liberalism—but had little to offer as an alternative. “We have been clear about the weakness and failures of the Christian Church,” Van Dusen wrote: “[W]e have been quite hazy about any necessary place for the Church in the modern world. We have recognized that the day of old-fashioned missions was past; we have had no conception of what missions in the new day might be.” Such criticism marked the first groping steps toward a theology of international engagement.

Abstract Robert Gordis (1908-1992) was born in New York. He received his rabbinical ordination from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America in 1932. A year earlier, in 1931, he had already begun to serve as the rabbi of Temple Beth El in Far Rockaway, New York, and he served in this position until 1968. In addition, a lifelong student of the Hebrew Bible, he began to teach biblical studies at the Jewish Theological Seminary in 1940, and then taught at Columbia University beginning in 1948, at Union Theological Seminary beginning in 1960, and finally, at Temple University from 1967 to 1974. He also served as editor of the influential journal Judaism, as the president of the Conservative movement’s Rabbinical Assembly, as president of the Synagogue Council of America, and as a consultant to the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions. His main area of scholarly expertise was the so-called wisdom literature of the Bible, e.g., Ecclesiastes and Job, and he wrote valuable studies of both of these biblical books. In addition, he wrote several books on Jewish theology, intended for the wider Jewish community as well as for scholars, that established his reputation as a theologian.
