American Democratic Socialism: History, Politics, Religion, and Theory is a non-fiction English-language book published in 2021 by Yale University Press, containing 752 pages. Written by American social ethicist and theologian Gary Dorrien, it presents an intellectual and political history of democratic socialism in the United States from the early nineteenth century to 2020. The work centers on the movement's main organizations and argues that religious socialism, the Black freedom struggle, and feminism were central elements. It serves as a companion to Dorrien’s history of European socialism and emphasizes Christian socialism along with the relationship between secular and religious traditions of the American left.
