Description:Angelic Troublemakers investigates religious and philosophical sources of modern American anarchism. It delves in-depth into the political implications of the religious-ethical visions of three American social justice aspirants . The main chapters are devoted to analyzing the political philosophies and actions of Thoreau, Day, and Rustin as they manifest in their participation in various social justice movements. These three activist icons present underexplored religious-ethical visions and criticisms of the modern state, and can plausibly be described as anarchists in that they reject the authority of the modern stateThe three radicals present related philosophical and religious doctrines of autonomy, theological conceptions of love and eschatology, and pragmatic-empirical reasons of various kinds that lend support to an ethical-political practice that is recognizably anarchist in its unwillingness to attribute authority to modern states.
