An international team of scholars address the theology and practice
of peacebuilding.
"Peacebuilding" refers to a range of topics, ranging from
conflict prevention to post-conflict reconciliation. In this volume
a strong cast of Catholic theologians, ethicists, and
scholar-practitioners join to examine the challenge of
peacebuilding in theory and practice. While many of the essays deal
with general themes of reconciliation, forgiveness, interreligious
dialogue, and human rights, there are also case studies of
peacebuilding in such diverse contexts as Colombia, the
Philippines, the Great Lakes region of Africa, Indonesia, and South
Africa. This volume will be of interest to all scholars engaged in
developing a theology and ethic of just peace, as well as students
seeking to understand the interaction between theology, ethics, and
lived Christianity.
Contributors include: John Paul Lederach; Maryann Cusimano
Love; Daniel Philpott; William Headley and Reina Neufeldt; Todd
Whitmore; Peter-John Pearson; Thomas Michel; Kenneth Himes; Lisa
Sowle Cahill; Peter Phan; and David O'Brien.
Responding to the call of the Second Vatican Council, this
introduction to moral theology shows how virtue ethics and a global
perspective shape the call to faithful discipleship today.
