For scholars and practitioners in Catholic ethics and theology

Addresses tension between conscience and institutional policies

You will gain insights for navigating ethical dilemmas in faith

This volume explores the complex relationship between conscience and Catholic institutional policies.
In this volume leading ethicists and theologians address "conscience," a term with loaded meaning and controversy in the Catholic Church in recent decades around issues like political participation, human sexuality, war and institutional violence, and theological dissent. Many essays in this challenging and far-ranging volume focus on the tension between the primacy of conscience (codified at Vatican II) and the processes and cultures of Catholic institutions, including schools, hospitals, and medical research facilities. Intended for a scholarly audience, this valuable collection will also appeal to those involved in Catholic health care, catechetical work, and pastoral ministry.
