| Abstract | "The book focuses on both historical and theological developments in world Christianity and social ethics, especially ethical challenges and opportunities that face minorities, oppressed, marginalized, and discriminated groups in any country or region of the world as we look to the future. It addresses the issues of methods and practices in social ethics, culture, and morality in Christian communities and theological discourse, and the virtues of Christian friendship in philosophical and practical terms. All these engagements are geared toward deepening our knowledge about the ethical dimensions of world Christianity." -- Publisher, page four of cover. |
