Beskrivning
Theology of Work: New Perspectives emerges from the necessity to continue theological reflection on work in light of the challenges posed by our contemporary world. The contributions offer a global perspective of the meaning of work, drawing from Trinitarian theology, theology of creation, eschatology, theological anthropology, and Christology. They shed light from the perspective of faith on the integration of different work dimensions, and consider how the theology of work is called to challenge social structures in light of revelation. The volume mostly develops the theology of work from a Catholic perspective, but Protestant and Orthodox approaches are also explicitly explored. The chapters cover different theological areas, such as biblical, dogmatic, patristic, and moral theology, to provide enriching and complementary perspectives. Offering fresh and valuable theological insights on work, this book will be of particular interest to scholars of theology and religious studies.

“The world desperately needs greater wisdom on the nature and purpose of work. Guitián contributes to this need giving us the collective insights of an impressive group of theologians drawing upon a 2000-year-old wisdom tradition. All scholars and practitioners would greatly benefit from its insights”. - Michael J. Naughton, University of St. Thomas, USA“The fruit of an impressive multi-year scholarly collaboration at the University of Navarra, this volume makes a distinctive and valuable contribution to contemporary Catholic discussions on work. Offering 'new perspectives' that foreground the theological, scholars draw fresh, tradition-anchored insights from scripture, patristics, liturgy, dogma, ethics, and more. Ecumenical and international voices further enrich this noteworthy book.” - Christine Firer Hinze, Fordham University, USA“Guitián and collaborators deserve praise for presenting a genuine dialogue on a topic of such widespread importance. I can think of no comparable volume where biblical scholars join systematic and moral theologians on a topic usually relegated to ethics, and I hope to see the achievement repeated. Many essays deserve to become classics.”- Kate Ward in Journal of Catholic Social Thought“The essays collected in Theology of Work, edited by Gregorio Guitián, provide a far-reaching theological analysis of work, bringing together Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox perspectives, and developing a range of topics related to biblical theology, Thomism, and the Social Magisterium. The collection is distinct in that it is organized around the three broad themes of context, integration, and challenge. It will be of interest, firstly, to moral theologians and Christian ethicists in their efforts to better appreciate the implications of work for the Christian tradition and vice versa, but also to business ethicists and organizational scholars seeking to better understand the motivations and concerns that may shape many organization members. As such, this is a timely volume full of rich insights that promise to spur many new potential lines of inquiry.”- Caleb Bernacchio in Studies in Christian Ethics“In this volume on the Theology of Work, the editor Gregorio Guitián shares with us an enriching exploration of this branch of economic theology. The various contributors provide us with fascinating insights in the theological contemplation and discussion of work. […] The book is firmly grounded in the orthodox Catholic tradition. Broadening the scope of the book are several contributions from Protestant and Eastern Orthodox writers. Together, the articles provide a comprehensive overview of the theology of work.”- J. Arie Biemond in Journal of Economics, Theology and Religion
