dc.description.abstract |
I completed my doctoral dissertation on The distinctiveness of Christian morality in 1978. In
this article, now more than 30 years later, I critically examined the extent to which the view
that I developed in my doctoral dissertation is still valid today and to what extent it stands
to be corrected in the light of developments in Christian ethics in the meantime. Firstly, I
provided a brief summary of the view developed in the dissertation. Secondly, I discussed the
influential alternative view of Stanley Hauerwas and attempted to identify ways in which his
view necessitates corrections to my own view in the dissertation. Thirdly, I criticised the onesidedness
of Hauerwas’s view on the distinctiveness of Christian morality and discussed ways in
which we need to go beyond Hauerwas’s view in order to develop a more satisfactory and
also more inclusive approach. |
