The threat of ecological collapse is increasingly becoming a
reality for the world's populations, both human and nonhuman;
addressing this global challenge requires enormous cultural
creativity and demands a diversity of perspectives, especially from
the humanities. Theology and Ecology Across the Disciplines draws
from a variety of academic disciplines and positions in order to
explore the role and nature of environmental responsibility,
especially where such themes intersect with religious or
theological viewpoints. Covering disciplines such as history,
philosophy, literature, politics, peace studies, economics, women's
studies, and the ecological sciences as well as systematic and
moral theology, the contributors emphasize how these positions have
begun to develop distinct perspectives on urgent ecological issues,
as well as pointing toward specific practices at the local and
international level. This volume provides a multidisciplinary point
of departure for urgent conversations on environmental
responsibility that resist simplistic solutions. Rather, the
contributors highlight the complex nature of modern ecology, and
suggest creative ways forward in the situation of an apparently
intractable global problem.
