Against the Nations is Stanley Hauerwas’s most wide-ranging and sustained effort to develop a uniquely Christian ethic. The book moves from such general themes as ‘Keeping Theological Ethics Theological’ and ‘Keeping Theological Ethics Imaginative’ to the application of these themes to such diverse topics as the Holocaust, Jonestown, the reality of the Kingdom, the reality of the Church, the democratic state, nuclear war, and disarmament.
