The Catholic University as Promise and Project: Reflections in a Jesuit Idiom

Georgetown University Press, 1998 - 224 sayfa
"The fundamental proposition that grounds the Catholic university, Buckley argues, is that the academic and the religious are intrinsically related. Academic inquiry encourages a process of questioning that leads naturally to issues of ultimate significance, while the experience of faith moves towards the understanding of itself in relationship to every other dimension of human life. This mutual involvement of faith and culture defines the unique purposes of Catholic higher education ... Buckley explores two commitments that implicate contemporary Catholic universities in controversy: an insistence upon open, free discussion and academic pluralism--to the objection of some in the Church; and an education in the promotion of social justice--to the objections of some in the academy"--From publisher description.
