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 authors address such questions as
how religious understandings have shaped the moral landscape of
contemporary culture; the possible contributions of theology and
theologically informed moral argument to contemporary public life;
the problem of 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.
