The Wiley-Blackwell Companion to Religion and Social Justice

Angebote / Angebote:

[The Companion's] global range, intellectual ecumenism, and attention to diverse historical contexts provide a rich resource for exploring how religious beliefs and practices engage issues of colonialism, gender justice, political struggle, healthcare, race, and the environment, among other topics ... Bringing together theoretical discussions with case studies, it opens up new pathways for exploring how global and local religions interrogate matters of historical injustice, identity, and the moral quality of public life. I recommend it enthusiastically."--Richard B. Miller, Indiana University The Wiley Blackwell Companion to Religion and Social Justice offers a wide-ranging account and exploration of the crucial topics at the intersection of religion and social justice. Virtually all major religions, faith traditions, and sacred belief systems have found ways to express "social justice." This is the first time a comparative study has brought all these elements together across all the major world religions. Newly commissioned essays by distinguished authors explain exactly what individual traditions believe in relation to social justice, what the main issues are and how the major faiths differ in their approaches, which social justice movements exist and what they do, who are the key thinkers and activists in each religion, and which are the key texts within religions. The result is a unique and richly informative volume, shedding new light on individual religions as well as providing a comparative history and survey of world religions.
