Christianity and Social Change

3 Units

In the absence of any social theory that is uniquely “Christian”, this course will seek to study the positions of the Christian churches on various political and social issues as they seek to define for themselves their role in a rapidly changing world. Asian models and the more traditional Western approaches to similar issues will be compared in order to highlight the strength and weaknesses of each in the common attempt to balance the Christian ideal and social realities.
