{"product_id":"john-rawls-and-christian-social-greg-forster-9781498504942","title":"John Rawls and Christian Social Engagement: Justice as Unfairness","description":"This book critiques the Rawlsian concepts of \"justice as fairness\" and \"public reason\" from the perspective of Christian political theory and practice. The Rawlsian paradigm has become pervasive in multiple disciplines outside political philosophy and is unconsciously embedded in a great deal of Christian public discourse; this calls for a new level of analysis from Christian perspectives. This is the first volume to examine Rawls based on Christian principles drawn from theological ethics, social thought, political theory and practical observation. In addition to theoretical perspectives, the book connects its critique of Rawls to specific hot-topic practical questions in three areas: social issues (abortion, marriage, etc.), economic issues (wealth creation, poverty programs, etc.), and the increasing difficulty of political compromise and peaceful coexistence in the context of the culture war. The book includes some of the leading Christian political theorists in America. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Greg Forster\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1498504949\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781498504942\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 0.90d","brand":"Greg Forster","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44064888258815,"sku":"9781498504942","price":122.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f084517e-e143-49a1-ac4f-6e83c9b47e1e.jpg?v=1685398170","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-rawls-and-christian-social-greg-forster-9781498504942","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
