Social Science in Christian Perspective

The essays in this book illustrate the "inner reformation of the sciences" approach for Christian faith and social science. The book opens with a philosophic introduction which gives an overview of the approach. This is followed by a series of papers on "social theory" which attempt to deal with paradigmatic and methodological questions. The text then offers an examination of particular fields of social inquiry: sociology, economics, and politics and technology. In each of these cases the subsection begins with a theoretical overview of the field, which reveals that eld's underlying assumptions and concepts and which sets the stage for essays on more focused topics-secularization, the sociology of knowledge, the capital debate, welfare economics, and systems. The collection closes with a meditation by George Grant on the place of faith in the modern university. Co-published by arrangement with the Institute for Christian Studies.
