Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Cavanaugh brings us a critique of modern Western civilization, including contemporary concerns about consumerism, capitalism, globalization, and poverty, from the perspective of a believing Catholic.

Synopsis:

A devastating critique of modern Western civilization, including contemporary concerns of consumerism, capitalism, globalization, and poverty, from the perspective of a believing Catholic.

Responding to Enlightenment and Postmodernist views of the social and economic realities of our time, Cavanaugh engages with contemporary concerns in a way reminiscent of Archbishop Rowan Williams' Lost Icons and Nicholas Boyle's Who Are We Now? (both Continuum). He develops the theme of the Eucharist as the basis for Christian resistance to the violent disciplines of state, civil society and globalization.

Synopsis:

William T. Cavanaugh gives a study of radical implications of Christian believing, and a cultural critique of modern Western civilization from the perspective of a believing Catholic.
