Recenzii
"Combining
theology,
sociology,
social
theory,
and
ethics,
Stackhouse's
'public
theology'
offers
a
very
judicious,
and
generally
favorable,
evaluation
of
globalization
understood
not
only
in
economic
or
geopolitical
terms
but
with
particular
attention
to
cultural
dynamics...Globalization
and
Grace
is
not
light
reading,
but
it
is
the
kind
of
book
that
fifty
or
a
hundred
years
from
now,
may
be
celebrated
for
its
prescience."

"Stackhouse's attempt to show the indebtedness of globalization to Christianity is insightful, and supports his contention that Christianity can help guide it. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates and above; general readers." -CHOICE
"In this important book the author has grasped what the Christian Faith means for globalization and what globalization means for the Christian faith." -Catholic Library World
"In his treatments of providence and salvation Stackhouse convincingly mines the biblical narrative for its capacity, especially as appropriated by public theology, to guide and morally regulate complex civilizations...I am persuaded that Stackhouse's cosmopolitan view offers more promise than does sectarian withdrawal. I am also convinced that constructive engagement with globalization is required for Christians who wish to remain committed broadly to history, God's creativity and the goodness of the created world." - Stephen Healey, The Christian Century, July 2008
"Stackhouse's Globalization and Grace significantly contributes to existing literature that examines how theology can help guide and direct the human community in this new era of complex and revolutionary global change. The fourth in a series edited by S. and sponsored by the Center of Theological Inquiry in Princeton, N. J., the volume maps out contours of a Christian public theology that can offer a social ethic capable of renewing communities around the globe and thereby help reform contemporary dominant 'powers.'... S.'s most important contribution is the rereading of central categories of Christian faith, such as creation, providence, and salvation, through the new lens of globalization. The book offers new wineskins of thought capable of holding this new social reality as we become increasingly more conscious of our interconnectedness and interdependence." -Daniel G. Groody, C.S.C., Theological Studies, March 2009
"[T]he scholars at CTI can be congratulated for launching this debate on the profound philosophical implications of a primarily economic phenomenon, globalization, that is raising living standards and eroding ethnic and class distinctions throughout the world." -Wall Street Journal online
