How did the present authority structures within the Church come
into existence? How, if at all, can we justify their existence?
What form of authority should exist in the Church? These and other
related questions exercise the minds of many Christians in these
days when the very notion of authority is questioned, but debate
about them is perhaps nowhere more lively than within the ranks of
Roman Catholicism. This book offers an important contribution to
such debate within that church. Leading Catholic theologians from
both sides of the Atlantic take up the key issues: analysing the
concept of authority and governance; examining the history of
authority within the Roman Catholic church; discussing who should
have a say in future developments; exploring ecumenical dimensions,
with particular reference to Anglicanism and the Orthodox churches;
and suggesting the kind of reforms that might be prudent, as well
as ways in which such reforms might be brought about. The book will
prove of interest to many Roman Catholics, but given the ecumenical
impact of many of the issues explored, it is likely to exert a wide
appeal far beyond the confines of that church.
