Overview
Brown (ministerial training, Cambridge Theological Federation) re-evaluates the activities and theological foundations of the churches' engagement with economic issues. He offers a model for developing such an engagement in light of current trends in Christian ethics, as a step toward the reconstitution of a practice of public theology. Dilemmas in economics and theology can be analyzes in terms of a dichotomy between the liberal and the communitarian, he argues, and bringing elements of the two together in an enlarged theology opens issues in economics and theology to resolution. The study is revised from his 2000 doctoral dissertation for Manchester University. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, ORBook Details
