Produktbeschreibung

This is the first substantial study in Christian Ethics to explore the problem of religion, plurality, and ethics. Why, asks the author, do different religions find it so hard to coexist together? In answering this question, the book ranges widely: culture, ethical method, the Christendom Group of T.S. Eliot, immigration, Rushdie and Islam, Bellah and "civil religion," Neuhaus and "public philosophy," MacIntyre and Milbank, the nature of truth and morality, and the political implications of postmodernism are all discussed.
