Ryan Lamothe

Pastoral Reflections on Global Citizenship (eBook, PDF)

Framing the Political in Terms of Care, Faith, and Community

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the growing awareness, brought on by the recent explosion of communication technology, that all human beings are citizens of the world. Ryan LaMothe argues that this awareness comes with an urgent need to address political issues, systems, and structures at local, state, and international levels that harm human beings and our one habitat. Through the lens of pastoral theology, LaMothe analyzes the concepts of care, faith, power, and community as they are related to addressing local and global problems linked to neoliberal capitalism, racism and classism.
