God and Globalization
Volume 4: Globalization and Grace

Description
This is the fourth volume in the series God and Globalization, sponsored by the Center of Theological Inquiry in Princeton, N.J. The 3 previous volumes were multi-authored. This volume is authored solely by Max Stackhouse, the general editor of the series, with a Foreword by the distinguished church historian Justo Gonzales. This final interpretive volume argues for a view of Christian theology that, in critical dialogue with other world religions and philosophies, is able to engage the new world situation, play a critical role in reforming the "powers" that are becoming more diverse and autonomous, and generate a social ethic for the 21st century.

Reviews
"Stackhouse's Globalization and Grace significantly contributes to existing literature that examines how theology can help guide and direct the human community in this new era of complex and revolutionary global change. The fourth in a series edited by S. and sponsored by the Center of Theological Inquiry in Princeton, N. J., the volume maps out contours of a Christian public theology that can offer a social ethic capable of renewing communities around the globe and thereby help reform contemporary dominant 'powers.'... S.'s most important contribution is the rereading of central categories of Christian faith, such as creation, providence, and salvation, through the new lens of globalization. The book offers new wineskins of thought capable of holding this new social reality as we become increasingly more conscious of our interconnectedness and interdependence." -Daniel G. Groody, C.S.C., Theological Studies, March 2009
