Abstract

Theology and Urbanization Christian theologians long feared the modem city. After the Second World War, a number of missionary clerics participated alongside secular researchers in sociological surveys focusing on the mobility and individualism of uprooted and atomized city dwellers. Their aim was to adapt pastoral care to a changing world. Various theological approaches, developed in Protestant circles, were progressively to consider urban existence as an important issue for the renewal of the Christian message.
