The World Made Otherwise

Sustaining Humanity in a Threatened World

By: Timothy J. Gorringe

Many natural scientists believe climate change will bring civilizational collapse. Tim Gorringe argues that behind this threat is a commitment to false values, embodied in our political, economic, and farming systems. At the same time, millions of people the world over--perhaps the majority--are committed to alternative values and practices. This book explores how these values, already foreshadowed in people's movements all over the world, can produce different political and economic realities which can underwrite a safe and prosperous future for all.

Word, Silence, and the Climate Emergency

God, Ekklesia, and Christian Doctrine

By: Timothy J. Gorringe

Word, Silence, and the Climate Emergency: God, Ekklesia, and Christian Doctrine is an exposition of Christian doctrine taking into account the current global emergency. Gorringe grounds our knowledge of God first in the revelation to the prophets and specifically in their political stance but above all in Jesus of Nazareth. God, or the NAME, Gorringe argues, is the antithesis of all the gods of projection, known in the silence of the cross and of the isolation cell. In a Triune format, the nature of God and the discourse of creation and providence are first considered before turning to the claim that “God was in Christ.” The final third of the book considers the nature and task of ekklesia, especially in the light of the global emergency which, Gorringe argues, is a confessional issue and the heart of ekklesia's present concern.

Crossing Thresholds

By: Timothy Carson,Nigel Rooms,Lisa Withrow,Rosemary Fairhurst

The human transformation available at the 'limen' (literally: the edge or threshold), noticed across different cultures by anthropologists, is at the heart of the Gospel. Indeed the liminal place is the place of transformation and change par excellence. We live in age of enormous and rapid change to which we do not yet see an end. There is therefore a 'kairos' moment here for the church to understand the importance of liminality through this unique book. Reading this book will offer new 'lenses' to understand humanity, God's world, the shape of Christian discipleship, the church and its mission differently. The authors believe engaging with liminality can help both readers' faith and the church to be re-imagined - and have included case studies, exercises and questions in each chapter to help this process.

Jürgen Moltmann's Ethics of Hope

Eschatological Possibilities For Moral Action

By: Timothy Harvie

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Jürgen Moltmann's Ethics of Hope

Eschatological Possibilities For Moral Action

By: Timothy Harvie

This book develops a thorough account of the sphere of human moral action in sustained dialogue with Jürgen Moltmann. By examining God's role as promise-giver, particularly in the Christian understanding of resurrection, this work describes the occupancy of both history and space in moral terms. This leads to an understanding of Jesus' description of 'the kingdom of God' to feature prominently in describing both the possibility and content of human moral action. By offering an account of each of the main doctrines found in Moltmann's corpus - the role of the future, the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, and anthropology - this book locates how each contributes to the understanding of ethics from a Christian perspective and subsequently applies these findings to the contemporary issue of poverty and global economics.

Australia's War Crimes Trials 1945-51

By: Georgina Fitzpatrick,Timothy L.H. McCormack,Narrelle Morris

This unique volume provides a detailed analysis of Australia’s 300 war crimes trials of principally Japanese accused conducted in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. Part I contains contextual essays explaining why Australia established military courts to conduct these trials and thematic essays considering various legal issues in, and historical perspectives on, the trials. Part II offers a comprehensive collection of eight location essays, one each for the physical locations where the trials were held. In Part III post-trial issues are reviewed, such as the operation of compounds for war criminals; the repatriation of convicted Japanese war criminals to serve the remainder of their sentences; and reflections of some of those convicted on their experience of the trials. In the final essay, a contemporary reflection on the fairness of the trials is provided, not on the basis of a twenty-first century critique of contemporary minimum standards of fair trial expected in the prosecution of war crimes, but by reviewing approaches taken in the trials themselves as well as from reactions to the trials by those associated with them. The essays are supported by a large collection of unique historical photographs, maps and statistical materials. There has been no systematic and comprehensive analysis of these trials so far, which has meant that they are virtually precluded from consideration as judicial precedent. This volume fills that gap, and offers scholars and practitioners an important and groundbreaking resource.

The Healthcare Professional Workforce

Understanding Human Capital in a Changing Industry

By: Timothy J. Hoff,Kathleen M. Sutcliffe,Gary J. Young

As the U.S. healthcare industry undergoes sweeping changes to increase efficiency and reduce costs, the healthcare workforce is changing as well. In this new system of care, physicians work alongside health care teams, where nurses, pharmacists, and other professionals must collaborate to provide better, more affordable care to many more patients than ever before. The HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL WORKFORCE is the first book to codify the transformations underway across health professions in the U.S. and to situate these changes within a larger context for both healthcare and non-healthcare audiences. This volume provides an important guide to understanding how health professionals fit within the emerging model of healthcare, and serves as a vital resource for readers in health policy management, medicine, public health, and organizational studies. Comprising seven unique chapters alongside commentaries from heads of healthcare organizations and influential physicians, THE HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL WORKFORCE provides a theoretical and practical benchmark for understanding the next generation of human capital in one of society's most important labor sectors.

Word and Supplement

Speech Acts, Biblical Texts, and the Sufficiency of Scripture

By: Timothy Ward

What are Christians saying when they call the Bible the Word of God? How is that statement to be understood in relation to postmodernity's suspicion of meaning? Word and Supplement tackles these questions by bringing the post-modern theory of Derrida (from whom the idea of "supplement" is borrowed), Barth, Fish, Gadamer, and many others into critical dialogue with the often-neglected doctrine of the sufficiency of Scripture.

Capital and the Kingdom

Theological Ethics and Economic Order

By: Timothy Gorringe

Timothy Gorringe's experiences in grassroots organizations for social change in India and as scholar and chaplain at Oxford University infuse this eloquent exploration of social, biblical, and philosophical considerations of the nature and purpose of ethical discourse. Starting from the premise that ethics is a conversation whereby humanity chooses its common path, Capital and the Kingdom forcefully addresses the question of what constitutes an ethic "for life" in the post-Cold War era.

God's Just Vengeance

Crime, Violence and the Rhetoric of Salvation

By: Timothy Gorringe

This book examines the relationship between the theologies of atonement and penal strategies. Christian theology was potent in Western society until the nineteenth century, and the so-called "satisfaction theory" of the atonement interacted and reacted with penal practice. Gorringe argues that atonement theology created a structure of affect that favored retributive policies. He reviews theory and practice in the twentieth century, and makes concrete proposals for both theology and criminal and societal violence.

Fair Shares

Ethics and the Global Economy

By: Timothy Gorringe

This book is also concerned with world economics, but it is approached from the viewpoint of ethics. It argues that the hubris of the present global market is destroying communities and wreaking irrevocable damage to the planet: we live in a modern version of the Midas myth.Justice in its broadest sense -- fair shares for all -- is eloquently held up as the prime virtue of human communities. Timothy Gorringe, Professor of Systematic Theology at the University of Exeter, offers practical suggestions for an ethical transformation to replace the spiraling profit-driven economy with a steady-state economy that meets human needs and encompasses the well-being of other species and the environment.

The Education of Desire

Towards a Theology of the Senses

By: Timothy Gorringe

This book - which is based on the John Albert Hall Lectures for 2000 given at the University of Victoria, British Columbia - outlines a theology of the senses, and argues that they arc the way in which God explores creation through the creature. As such, they are our pre-eminent 'means of grace: To make that statement raises questions about disability, the abuse of our senses, and a world increasingly based on consumerism. T J Gorringe takes up and explores these themes in subsequent chapters, concluding with an account of the eucharist as a major part in what he calls the education of our desire' The author is one of the most creative British theologians at work today, and is well known for his wide ranging interdisciplinary work at the interface of theology, social policy, crime and justice. The Education of Desire is vintage Gorringe: subtle, thought provoking, allusive, pointing towards a new way of comprehending our sensuality and humanity, and invariably challenging of accepted orthodoxies. 'The Education of Desire is a beautifully written and humane work, composed by a profound thinker who is wittily alive to the world of popular culture as well as to Karl Barth and Jiirgen Moltmann. From its exquisite title to its deep, theological appreciation of the God-given senses in all their manifold aspects, this is a compelling book' David Jasper, Professor of Literature and Theology, University of Glasgow 'This is how Christian theology today needs to be written: on the body and through the body. With this analysis and celebration of the senses, Gorringe returns theological thinking, quite rightly, to the carnality of incarnationalism. The Education of Desire is a rich exploration which needs to be widely received and profoundly practised.' Graham Ward, Professor of Contextual Theoloff and Ethics, University of Manchester T J Gorringe is St Luke's Foundation Professor ofTheological Studies at the University of Exeter.
