Ethical exploration in a multifaith society
Shelley, Catherine.

Ethical exploration in a multifaith society[electronic resource] /by Catherine Shelley. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2017. - ix, 338 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1: Introduction to Philosophical and Theological Ethics -- Chapter 2: Reason in ethics and theology -- Chapter 3: Natural Law, reason and religion -- Chapter 4: Utilitarianism: a modern Godless ethic? -- Chapter 5: By whose authority? What gives ethics their power? -- Chapter 6: Authority and religious texts -- Chapter 7: Religious ethics as cultural or counter-cultural -- Chapter 8: Theological ethical processes and meta-narratives -- Chapter 9: Global ethics and theological ethics -- Chapter 10: Concluding thoughts, looking forward.

This book considers the theory and application of ethics for a multifaith society. Much ethics taught in the UK has been dominated by Christian ethics, their relation to secularism and by the Enlightenment's reaction against theology as a basis for ethical thought. In contrast to these perspectives this book brings secular and theological ethics into dialogue, considering the degree to which secular ethics has common roots with theological perspectives from various traditions. The book assesses the application of ethical and theological principles in today's multifaith society. Aiming to enhance ethical understanding and awareness across divergent worldviews, identifying at what points divergence does occur, the author examines topics such as reason and ethics in theology, natural law, utilitarianism and deontology and differences of approach to interpreting religious scriptures. The focus on ethical methods is illustrated through topical concerns in religion and ethics, for example sexuality, marriage and education and religion in relation to global ethics and human rights.
