Historically, natural law has played a pivotal role in Christian
approaches to the law, and a contested role in legal philosophy
generally. However, comparative study of natural law across global
Christian traditions is largely neglected. This book provides not
only the history of natural law ideas across mainstream Christian
traditions worldwide, but also an ecumenical comparison of the
contemporary natural law positions of different traditions. Its
focus is not solely theoretical: it tests the practical utility of
natural law by exploring its use in the legal systems of the
churches studied. Alongside analysis of the assumptions underlying
the concept, it also proposes a jurisprudence of Christian law
itself. With chapters written by distinguished lawyers and
theologians across the world, this book is designed for those
studying and teaching law or theology, those who practice and study
ecumenism, and those involved in the practice of church law.
