For a time of peril, world-renowned theologian Jrgen Moltmann
offers an ethical framework for the future. Long distinguished as
the architect of political theology and father of the theology of
hope, Moltmann has shown how hope in the future decisively
reconfigures the present and shapes our understanding of central
Christian convictions, from creation to New Creation. Now, in an
era of unprecedented scientific advances alongside unparalleled
global dangers, Moltmann has formulated his long-awaited Ethics of
Hope. Building on his conviction that Christian existence and
social matters are inextricably tied together in the political
sphere, Moltmann unfolds his ethics in light of eschatology,
clearly distinguishing it from prior and competing visions of
Christian ethics. He then specifies his vision with an ethic of
life (against the dominant ethic of death), an ethic of earth
(against todays utilitarian ethic), and an ethic of justice
(against todays social injustice and global conflicts). In the
process, he applies this framework to concrete issues of medical
ethics, ecological ethics, and just-war ethics. A creative and
programmatic work, Ethics of Hope is a realistic assessment of the
human prospect, as well as its imperatives, from one who stakes
everything on Gods promise to rescue life from the jaws of death.
