FROM THE BACK COVER: This book is a systematic treatment of moral theology from the perspective of liberation theology. It not only surveys the evolution of Catholic moral theology but lays the foundations for a Christian ethic in a world of injustice. In a courageous, balanced, readable way, Moser and Leers examine moral theology-past and present-and explore liberation theology's central ethical principles. They show how moral theology led to 'dead ends,' first by the scholastic morality, and then by the *renewed* morality of contemporary western Europe. The first, they argued, failed through concentration on the individual as the main subject.
