Communitarian Ethics: Later Writings of Walter G. Muelder

This is a collection of previously unpublished essays on a variety of contemporary social and church-related topics by a founder of the discipline of social ethics, Walter G. Muelder. The editor, J. Philip Wogaman, one of Muelder's most outstanding students and an acclaimed social ethicist in his own right, compiled the collection and contributes a brief context for each essay. He concludes the volume with an insightful reflection on Muelder's broader significance and the outlook for social ethics 'beyond Muelder.'
