Charity after Augustine (eBook, ePUB)

Solidarity, Conflict, and the Practices of Charity in the Latin West

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Charity after Augustine explores why our attempts to build solidarity or social cohesion, at least in the West, have ended in disaster just as often as they have brought about a more just society. By focusing on concrete practices of love or charity, this book probes the double-sided nature of the Christian concepts and practices of charity.
