About this title

Synopsis

Today s overlapping social and ecological crises portend Bernard Lonergan s memorable remark that the world lies in pieces before us and pleads to be put together again. The calls of Catholic social teaching for a humane globalization and, more recently in Laudato si , an integral ecology only heighten the urgency of this task. Inspired and aided by Lonergan s thought, this volume presents an array of essays that collectively aspire to answer these pleas. Engaging theology, philosophy, the social sciences, and the natural sciences, the volume s authors hope to show how in fact everything is interconnected in the church s ongoing task of caring for our common, though fragmented, home. Contributing authors: Nicolas J. Baumgartner, Lucas Briola, John D. Dadosky, Edward Dunar, Benjamin J. Hohman, Thomas Hughson, SJ, Thomas C. McAuley, Joseph Ogbonnaya, Nicholas Olkovich, Jame Schaefer, Paul St. Amour, Cristina Vanin, Kate Ward, Gerard Whelan, SJ.
