This book critiques the Rawlsian concepts of "justice as fairness"
and "public reason" from the perspective of Christian political
theory and practice. The Rawlsian paradigm has become pervasive in
multiple disciplines outside political philosophy and is
unconsciously embedded in a great deal of Christian public
discourse; this calls for a new level of analysis from Christian
perspectives. This is the first volume to examine Rawls based on
Christian principles drawn from theological ethics, social thought,
political theory and practical observation. In addition to
theoretical perspectives, the book connects its critique of Rawls
to specific hot-topic practical questions in three areas: social
issues (abortion, marriage, etc.), economic issues (wealth
creation, poverty programs, etc.), and the increasing difficulty of
political compromise and peaceful coexistence in the context of the
culture war. The book includes some of the leading Christian
political theorists in America.
