Abstract
This thesis takes a new approach to the interpretation of Reinhold
Niebuhr's thought by arguing that the category of "redemption" is a key
hermeneutical concept for understanding his theology. It is argued that
his ethics can best be interpreted as flowing out his understanding of
human destiny in the light of the Christian doctrine of the Atonement.
