Charles Curran in his newest book The Development of Moral
Theology: Five Strands, brings a unique historical and critical
analysis to the five strands that differentiate Catholic moral
theology from other approaches to Christian ethics -- sin and the
manuals of moral theology, the teaching of Thomas Aquinas and later
Thomists, natural law, the role of authoritative church teaching in
moral areas, and Vatican II. Significant changes have occurred over
the course of these historical developments. In addition, pluralism
and diversity exist even today, as illustrated, for example, in the
theory of natural law proposed by Cardinal Ratzinger. In light of
these realities, Curran proposes his understanding of how the
strands should influence moral theology today. A concluding chapter
highlights the need for a truly theological approach and calls for
a significant change in the way that the papal teaching office
functions today and its understanding of natural law. In a work
useful to anyone who studies Catholic moral theology, The
Development of Moral Theology underscores, in the light of the
historical development of these strands, the importance of a truly
theological and critical approach to moral theology that has
significant ramifications for the life of the Catholic church.
