Book Description
The Common Good and Christian Ethics rethinks the ancient tradition of the common good in a way that addresses contemporary social divisions, both urban and global. David Hollenbach draws on social analysis, moral philosophy, and theological ethics to chart new directions in both urban life and global society. He argues that the division between the middle class and the poor in major cities and the challenges of globalisation require a new commitment to the common good and that both believers and secular people must move towards new forms of solidarity.
Review
"David Hollenbach, S.J., charts new directions for envisioning and enacting the common good. Steeped in the debates of the past few decades and conversant with political theory, development economics, and the sociology of race, poverty, and civil society, this wide-ranging and illuminating book extends his articulation of the common good as a distinctively Catholic contribution still vital to public policy and discourse." The Journal of Religion
"The author argues clearly, concisely and persuasively that 'the idea of the common good is an idea whose time has once again come'." Catholic Books Review
"The Common Good and Christian Ethics is not only the best work in American Catholic public philosophy in over 40 years, it is likely to remain the best for many years to come." America
"...an important addition to the 'New Studies in Christian Ethics' series...highly relevant...The Common Good and Christian Ethics combines theoretical clarity and practical substance to open new possibilities for religion in shaping public life." Theology Today
