This volume brings together eminent theologians, philosophers and
political theorists to discuss the relevance of theology and
theologically grounded moral reflection to contemporary America's
public life and argument. Avoiding the focus on hot-button issues,
shrill polemics, and sloganeering that so often dominate
discussions of religion and public life, the contributors address
such subjects as how religious understandings have shaped the moral
landscape of contemporary culture, the possible contributions of
theologically-informed argument to contemporary public life,
religious and moral discourse in a pluralistic society, and the
proper relationship between religion and culture. Indeed, in the
conviction that serious conversation about the type of questions
being explored in this volume is in short supply today, this volume
is organized in a manner designed to foster authentic dialogue.
Each of the book's four sections consists of an original essay by
an eminent scholar focusing on a specific aspect of the problem
that is the volume's focus followed by three responses that
directly engage its argument or explore the broader problematic it
addresses. The volume thus takes the form of a dialogue in which
the analyses of four eminent scholars are each engaged by three
interlocutors.
