The Politics of Penance
Author: Michael Griffin
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1498204252
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
"Bless me Father, for I have sinned," says the penitent to open the dialogue in Catholic confessionals across the globe and throughout the ages. Along with the priest's words, "For your penance . . ." this encounter is an icon of Catholic life. But does the script, and the practices it signifies, have any relevance beyond the confessional? In The Politics of Penance, Michael Griffin responds yes. He explores great figures of the Christian tradition--the early Irish monks, St. Thomas Aquinas, and Pope St. John Paul II--to offer surprising insights for social repair. The result is a new ethic, which Griffin applies to contemporary crises in criminal justice, truth and reconciliation, and the treatment of soldiers returning from war.

War and the Law of Nations
Author: Stephen C. Neff
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139445235
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 457
Book Description
This ambitious 2005 volume is a history of war, from the standpoint of international law, from the beginning of history to the present day.

It tells the story, in narrative form, of the interplay, through the centuries, between, on the one hand, legal ideas about war and, on the other hand, state practice in warfare. Its coverage includes reprisals, civil wars, UN enforcement and the war on terrorism. This book will interest historians, students of international relations and international lawyers.
