Abstract
"Was Reinhold Niebuhr Wrong About Socialism?" requires attention to several other questions: Was Niebuhr right about capitalism? Which socialism and which capitalism, when? And how do we properly assess Niebuhr on socialism well after convulsive economic changes he did not live to see? This paper gives special attention to Christian socialisms before and during Niebuhr's time, as well as the strong influence of Ernst Troeltsch in his response to these. The concluding section speculates about Niebuhr's possible stance toward the triumph of global capitalism.
