Product Overview
Offering an in-depth exploration of the intricate interplay between
theology, ecology, and social justice, Facing Climate Collapse
critically engages with the evolving discourse surrounding the
'Anthropocene' and presents a compelling argument for rebranding this
epoch as the 'capitalocene.' Collectively offering a rigorous
examination of diverse theological perspectives, including ecofeminist
antiwar theology and a reimagining of salvation in the context of
climate change, the chapters in this book present perspectives on
ecological justice, indigenous wisdom, and congregational ecclesiology
in Southern Africa.
With contributions from various academic voices, including many from the
Global South, this volume invites readers to engage with innovative
concepts, challenge established paradigms, and explore fresh approaches
to the pressing ecological issues of our era. This book is part of a new
series of volumes co-published with the World Council of Mission’s DARE
(Discernment And Radical Engagement) programme.
