Virtues & Practices in the Christian Tradition: Christian Ethics After Macintyre

Book Overview

Contributors to Virtues and Practices in the Christian Tradition use Alasdair MacIntyre's work as a methodological guide for doing ethics in the Christian tradition. These essays are grouped in three sections: descriptions of MacIntyre's approach to ethics as developed in After Virtue, reflections on the moral issues that come to the fore when viewing the Christian tradition from a MacIntyrean perspective, and selected essays on family, homosexuality, abortion, pacifism, feminism, business ethics, medical ethics, and economic justice.
