Faith and Philosophy, Part 2: Resurrecting Justice

Episode Topic: Resurrecting JusticeFor centuries, the dominant concept of justice in the West has been the constant will to render another his due. The Bible, though, contains a different way of thinking about justice: comprehensive right relationship. This justice affirms what is due, or rights, but also proffers duties that exceed due such as mercy, hospitality, care, forgiveness and reconciliation. Retrieving this justice, which the classical concept has overswept, holds out promise for politics today in matters ranging from the protection of life, to immigration, to healing the wounds of racial injustice.Featured Speakers:Daniel Philpott, Professor of Political Science, University of Notre DameRead this episode's recap over on the University of Notre Dame's open online learning community platform, ThinkND: https://go.nd.edu/30143e.This podcast is a part of the ThinkND Series titled Faith and Philosophy.Thanks for listening!
