The first comprehensive and critical overview of Christian
perspectives on the relationship between social justice and
ecological integrity, this annotated bibliography focuses on works
that include ecological issues, social-ethical values and problems,
and explicitly theological or religious reflection on ecological
and social ethics and their interrelations. This body of moral
reflection on the relationship between ecological ethics and social
and economic justice (sometimes called eco-justice) will be of
interest to those involved in religious education, research,
liturgical renewal, public policy recommendations, community
action, lay witness, and personal life-style transformation. The
work is comprised of an introductory review essay followed by over
500 complete annotations. As a contemporary subject, much has been
written in the past 30 years about the Christian approaches to the
relationship between ecological integrity and social justice. The
literature comes from a variety of disciplines and perspectives:
from biblical studies to philosophical theology and cultural
criticism; and from evangelical theory to process, feminist, and
creation-centered theologies. Although there have been significant
movements and developments in this literature, much writing seems
unaware of other or earlier discussions of the interrelationships.
This volume brings all the works together.
Democracy, Ecological Integrity and International Law is the latest
product of research by the Global Ecological Integrity Group
(www.globalecointegrity.net), an organisation that has been meeting
annually since 1992 to discuss scientific, philosophical, political
and legal aspects of ecological integrity.This collection examines
various aspects of governance from the standpoint of integrity:
from democracy, to forms of Native governance, from globalization
and neocolonialism to specific human rights to food, water and
climate.
