Publisher description
Connecting Ecologies focuses on the environmental aspects of Pope Francis' encyclical Laudato Si' and the challenge to care for our common home. It considers how best to devise and implement the new societal models needed to tackle the ecological problems facing the world today. The book addresses the need for and complexity of an integral ecology, one that looks not only to physical and biological processes but also allows for the contributions of theology, philosophy, spirituality, and psychology, and includes the implications for the human and social sciences. The contributions document four categories of resonances, resources, requirements, and responses evoked by a reading of Laudato Si' and include consideration of other faith traditions. They reflect on how care for our common home motivates people in different places, cultures, and professions, to cooperate for myriad goods in common. The volume is particularly relevant for scholars working in Religious Studies and Theology with an interest in ecology, the environment, and the Anthropocene
