On Sustainability

摘要

Linking ecology to civilization and ecological sustainability, 114 experts present nearly 150 articles exploring the global community's "religious, philosophical, and ethical dimensions of environmental challenges." Internationalrncontributors include a variety of scholars and ecology professionals, as well as the Forum on Religion and Ecology. This first volume in a projected ten-volume set on sustainability provides broad overviews of society's varied values, morals, and belief systems, with articles ranging from "Confucianism," "Christianity," and "Indigenous Traditions" to "Stewardship," "Millennium Development Goals," and "Law." Organized alphabetically, each signed, two- to five-page article includes a resource bibliography. Jenkins (Ecologies of Grace) is an assistant professor at Yale Divinity School, and Bauman (Theology, Creation and Environmental Ethics) teaches at Florida International University.
