Robert Woodberry: Empire & the Missionary Roots of Liberal Democracy

Published 5 years, 7 months ago
Description

Dr. Robert Woodberry discusses his groundbreaking work pointing to how “Western modernity is profoundly shaped by religious factors and in particular, that conversionary Protestants were a crucial catalyst initiating the development and spread of religious liberty, mass education, mass printing, newspapers, voluntary organizations, most major colonial reforms, and the codification of legal protections for nonwhites in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.”
