William Schweiker 
Theological Ethics and Global Dynamics [PDF ebook] 
In the Time of Many Worlds

Ủng hộ

The nature of ethics has been the subject of much controversy and
argument in recent decades. Theological Ethics and Global
Dynamics tackles these various debates, offering a
wide-ranging, comprehensive, and provocative statement of the
nature of theological ethics in global times.
* * Offers an accessible, lively, and provocative statement of the
nature of moral philosophy and theological ethics in contemporary
times.
* Tackles various perspectives on debates about distinctly
Christian ethics.
* Argues that we need to reframe the arena in which moral
questions are asked.
* Engages a range of positions, exploring distinctively modern
issues such as moral and cultural relativism, globalization,
problems of consumption and violence, and religious
pluralism.
* Addresses the complexity of certain ethical decisions, which
are difficult and far from clear-cut, and yet presents an ethical
understanding which is both humane and deeply religious.
